Yaghmaie Holds on With Pocket Sevens
Level 6
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Robert Haigh raised to 25,000 under the gun with Naryman Yaghmaie calling from the next position and Razvan Sabau calling on the button.
The flop came down 8♠5♠8♦ and Haigh continued with a bet of 30,000. Yaghmaie raised to 75,000 and Sabau three-bet to 175,000. Haigh reluctantly folded, but Yaghmaie called to see a turn.
Yaghmaie checked the 10♣ turn and Sabau fired out a bet of 225,000. Yaghmaie pondered for a few moments and then tossed in the call.
The 2♥ fell on the river and Yaghmaie checked. Sabau thought for a while and then checked behind. Yaghmaie showed 7♠7♥ for just a pair of sevens, which was good as Sabau mucked his cards.
