Modans Cuts Nabavi's Stack in Half
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Davis Modans limped under the gun. Seyed Nabavi raised to 150,000 and got called by Joseph Brumpacheco on the button and David Munce in the small blind. When action went back to him, Modans re-raised to 700,000. Nabavi called making Brumpacheco and Munce fold.
The flop came A♠J♦8♠. Modans kept the heat with 1,400,000 bet. Nabavi, unfazed, called. On the turn 7♥, Modans shoved all-in for 860,000 and Nabavi snap-called.
Davis Modans: A♥A♣9♣3♣ 
Seyed Nabavi: K♠Q♥Q♠9♦
Modans flopped a set against Nabavi's pocket queens. The river 7♦ secured Modans double up by improving his hand to a full house.
