Tukzadeh Meets his Fate
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Amir Turkzadeh shoved for his final 200,000 from middle position. This led to an all-in from Franklin Chavez out of the small blind to isolate. The big blind folded as Turkzadeh was at risk as they went to a showdown.
Amir Turkzadeh: A♦Q♠
Franklin Chavez: 8♥8♣
Turkzadeh hit plenty more outs to work with on the 10♦3♦6♦ flop as Chavez was clinging to his lead.
The 8♠ turn eliminated the overcards for Turkzadeh as Chavez hit a set to bolster his position.
It was a good thing for Chavez that he hit his eight because the A♥ came on the river to give Turkzadeh an inferior pair of aces to eliminate him from contention.
