Izotov Plays It Tricky, Shows
Level 21
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Aaron Pahlawani limped in from middle position and Pavel Izotov followed suit in the hijack. It then folded to Stanislau Melhui in the big blind, who raised to 550,000.
Pahlawani called before Izotov decided to back-raise to 2,250,000. Both opponents mucked their cards and Izotov tabled A♠A♣ as he dragged the pot.
