Zhou Doubles Off Mokri Again, Then Mokri Gets Lucky
Level 14
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Kayhan Mokri moved all in from the cutoff and Quan Zhou called for his last 45,000 in the small blind.
Quan Zhou: 9♦9♠
Kayhan Mokri: K♥9♥
Mokri couldn't connect with the 4♠J♥6♠2♦9♣ board as Zhou made a set on the river to double up yet again.
Left with just 22,000, Mokri was in the big blind the next hand and called when small blind Ottomar Ladva raised.
Kayhan Mokri: 7♥5♦
Ottomar Ladva: A♥K♣
Mokri could only laugh after running into another big hand. Ladva made top pair on the 7♦A♦2♠ flop as the K♦ fell on the turn. The J♦ river, though, improved Mokri to a flush and kept him in the tournament.
"How do you do it?" Felipe Ketzer joked with him afterward.
