Istomin Nearing Seven Figures

Frank Visser

Level 7 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Aleksei Istomin was in the hijack and raised to 10,000. Big blind Wei Lin then three-bet to 47,000, and Istomin responded with a four-bet to 85,000.

Lin was not satisfied yet, as he five-bet jammed all in for 254,000. Istomin wasted no time in calling.

Wei Lin: J♥J♦ All in
Aleksei Istomin: K♥K♦

Istomin's kings faced no threats on the 4♣Q♠A♥4♥9♠ runout, eliminating Lin.
