Meirbekov Flips Vladimir to the Rail
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Sultan Meirbekov was in the cutoff and had three-bet a previous open to 55,000. Alekseev Vladimir on the button moved all in for approximately 200,000 and Meirbekov made the call with a covering stack to put Vladimir at risk.
Alekseev Vladimir: 9♥9♣
Sultan Meirbekov: A♦J♥
Vladimir caught the better end of the 3♠5♥8♣ flop but Meirbekov took the lead with top pair on the J♣ turn. He remained ahead on the A♥ river to send Vladimir to the rail and take down a healthy pot.
