Iakobishvili's Stickiness Costs Him on the River
Level 22
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Gha Iakobishvili raised to 125,000 in the cutoff and Damir Gabdullin called in the big blind.
Iakobishvili continued for 80,000 on the J♣8♣8♠ flop, and Gabdullin came back with a raise to 250,000. Iakobishvili called, and the J♠ fell on the turn.
Gabdullin then bet 225,000 and Iakobishvili again called. The 9♣ river was checked down, and Iakobishvili showed A♦9♥ for two pair. Gabdullin, though, had rivered a flush with Q♣4♣ to win the pot.
