Assadourians On Fire

Eric Assadourian

It's been a good couple of minutes for the Assadourians.

Firstly Assadour was all in after calling 14,000 preflop, and then shoving his last 25,500 on a {3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop. Jens Walther made the call.

Assadourian: {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Walther: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

Assadourian stood and put his jacket on with one foot out the door, but the {10-Diamonds} on the turn saved him before the {8-Clubs} hit the river. Assadour doubles to 90,000.

A few moments later his son Eric was all in as well. It was Charlie Swan who opened to 18,500 before Assadourian shoved for his last 43,500 from the small blind. Rob Toleafoa made the call in the big blind as did Swan.

The two live players checked down a board of {2-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and incredibly both flipped {A-?}{K-?} as Assadourian tripled up with his {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. He's back to 135,000 and back in business!
