Aslan Puts in a Big Shove; Khabbazeh Goes Runner-Runner on Brand
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Kemal Aslan three-bet to 125,000 on the button and Gurcan Gungoren called in the big blind. Iraklis Manikaros then four-bet to 345,000 in middle position.
Aslan came back with an all-in shove for 920,000 and Gungoren quickly folded. Manikaros, though, tanked for several minutes before he joined Gungoren in the muck, allowing Aslan to take the pot without seeing a flop.
At the same time at another table, Basel Khabbazeh and Yoav Brand built a pot of around 800,000 going to the river on a board of K♥2♦6♦5♣4♠. Khabbazeh then moved all in for 450,000 in the big blind and Brand called in middle position.
Khabbazeh showed K♠3♠ for a rivered straight and Brand angrily tossed A♦K♦ into the muck before handing over the massive pot.
