Ardavan Yazdi Triples His Microstack

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

John Hanna raised to 350,000 from early position and Ardavan Yazdi called all in from the small blind for a total of 120,000. The big blind folded and Hanna and Yazdi tabled their hands.

Hanna showed {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and Yazdi flipped over one card at a time to reveal {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}.

The flop fell {Q-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, giving Hanna the nut flush draw, although Yazdi's pair was still best. The {Q-Clubs} on the turn changed nothing, and the {5-Clubs} on the river gave Yazdi fives full of queens to effectively more than triple his stack, although he's still extremely short.
