Ghaeli Shows Down Cowboys
Level 1
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Alisa Sibgatova opened to 1,100 from under the gun and received a call from Aleksandr Chernikov in the hijack before Ehsan Ghaeli three-bet to 5,600 from the button. Alfred Nader called in the big blind, Sibgatova folded and Chernikov called.
The flop came 10♣9♠3♥ and action checked around to Ghaeli who bet 8,500. Both opponents made the call.
All three players then checked the 3♦ turn and 2♠ river. Nader showed top pair with J♠10♠ but Ghaeli had an overpair with K♠K♥ to win the hand.
