Iskandarov Surges Ahead

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Rashad Iskandarov
Rashad Iskandarov

Rushad Iskandarov opened to 25,000 from under the gun and action folded around to a player in the cutoff who, with a sizable stack behind, moved all in. The button and blinds quickly got out of the way while Iskandarov snapped it off with the covering stack to put his opponent at risk.

Cutoff Player: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Rushad Iskandarov: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Iskandarov held a commanding lead over his opponent and looked set to take down a massive pot. The {2-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop changed little with the {2-Spades} turn confirming the at risk player's elimination prior to the inconsequential {7-Diamonds} river. As Iskandarov raked in his newly acquired chips, several players at the table exchanged puzzled glances. Whether this was linked to the cutoff player's shove or not can only be inferred.
