Ahmed Shoves on Zektser

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Owais Ahmed raised to 70,000 in middle position and Igor Zektser called in late position with all other action folding.

The flop rolled out 895 and Ahmed bet 215,000 which Zektser called.

On the turn 10, Ahmed moved all in for 495,000 and Zekster shook his head. He began talking to himself and looking back and forth at his hand. Eventually his demeanor turned to frustrated chuckles.

"What's so funny?" asked Ahmed.

"What's funny is I've had this hand three times at this table and it's been carnage every single time," Zektser replied. Eventually he tossed his hand into the muck, ceding the pot to the WSOP bracelet winner.
