Zubov Busts Rezaei and Chaoui to Set Up Stone Bubble
Level 16
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Daniel Rezaei put in his last 10,000 from the hijack and then Alexander Zubov three-bet from the button, for more than what Mehdi Chaoui and Thomas Eychenne had in the blinds. Chaoui called off his stack of 310,000 from the small blind before Eychenne got out of the way.
Daniel Rezaei: K♦K♣
Mehdi Chaoui: A♥K♠
Alexander Zubov: J♠10♥
The two short stacks had woke up with premiums, with Rezaei remaining best following the 10♣9♥6♣ flop. Zubov had top pair to put Chaoui on the verge of exit but the K♥ turn meant he was the favorite to take the side pot while Rezaei improved to a set. However, the Q♦ river gave Zubov a straight for the the double bust out.
