Gadzhiev Stops Moein's Ascension

Level 6 : Blinds 700/1,500, 1,500 ante
Roman Gadzhiev
Roman Gadzhiev

Roman Gadzhiev and Ali Moein built a pot of around 25,000 heading to the {j-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop, when Gadzhiev bet 7,000 from early position. Moein raised to 35,000 from under the gun and Gadzhiev called.

Both players checked the {k-Hearts} turn before the {k-Clubs} fell on the river. Moein bet another 35,000 and Gadzhiev quickly called.

Moein showed {10-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a missed straight draw, while Gadzhiev took the pot with {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} for two pair.

"Why not all in? I would've insta-called," Gadzhiev told his tablemate after the hand. Moein lost that pot, but he's still managed to build a massive stack of around 400,000 so far on Day 1a.
