Abelmasov Among Chip Leaders
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Another player with a stack is Igor Abelmasov.
Abelmasov took the chip lead early on in the flight and has kept growing his stack to be among the chip leaders in the final level. Both Petr Rudnev and Salim Usmanov are on the same table as Abelmasov, and the trio just played out a rather passive pot.
Abelmasov raised the cutoff to 5,000 and Usmanov called in the small blind. Rudnev also came along from the big blind.
All three checked to showdown on the connected A♦J♠Q♥10♥9♣ board, where Usmanov's Q♦9♦ was good for the pot with two pair.
