Moein Survives the First All-In
Level 16
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Alexander Sokolovsky raised to 15,000 on the button and Ali Moein called from the big blind.
With 26,000 left, Moein shoved the 8♠A♥9♦ flop, and Sokolovsky called.
Ali Moein: A♠9♥ 
Alexander Sokolovsky: A♣2♣
Moein was way ahead, and the 6♦Q♦ runout changed nothing, earning him a double-up.
