Vahabi Busts After Painful Runout
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Mehrdad Vahabi shoved for 4,200 from under the gun and received calls from Aaron Motoyama on the button and Michael Reisman in the big blind.
The flop came 2♠2♥4♥. Reisman bet 10,000 and Motoyama folded.
Mehrdad Vahabi: A♠9♣
Michael Reisman: 5♥5♠
Reisman's pocket fives were ahead but Vahabi made aces up on the A♥ turn and became a big favorite to triple up. The 7♥ river gave Reisman the best hand with a flush and Vahabi was sent to the rail.
