Zhugralin Attempts a Huge Bluff
In the last hand before the break, Rafael Aslanli raised from under the gun and Damir Zhugralin three-bet from the next position. After it got back to Aslanli he four-bet and Zhugralin called.
Aslanli continued with a bet of 1,800,000 on the Q♣9♥6♠ flop and was met by a raise to 4,250,000 from Zhugralin. Aslanli called with no time bank cards remaining.
The 7♦ turn checked through for the 10♣ to hit the river. Aslanli checked again and Zhugralin shoved for 9,375,000. Aslanli got a count from the dealer to give himself a few extra seconds, but after thinking for a short time, he slammed in the call.
Damir Zhugralin: A♦4♦
Rafael Aslanli: A♥Q♦
Zhugralin immediately stood up as he knew he was out of the tournament holding just ace-high. Aslanli eliminated him and took down a huge pot with just a pair of queens.
