Alajmi Picks Up Where He Left Off
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Abdullah Alajmi was late coming back from break and missed the first hand. He then took his seat and opened right away to 450,000 under the gun with 2♠2♥. Baurzhan Akimov called in the big blind.
The flop came Q♠4♣3♥ and Alajmi fired out 1,200,000. Akimov quickly folded K♥6♦.
The next hand, Simone Andrian raised to 400,000 under the gun with A♠9♠ and Alajmi defended K♣7♠.
The K♠6♥4♥ flop gave Alajmi top pair and both players checked. Alajmi led out for 800,000 on the Q♠ turn and Andrian called with a flush draw.
The river was the 10♣ and Alajmi bet 1,500,000. Andrian missed his draw and gave up his hand as Alajmi added to his massive chip lead.
