Tas Holds On to More Than Double

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante

Four players, including Axel Hallay, Ismail Tas, and Mounir Habib, put in 7,500 before the flop as action went to Jenya Gavrilovich in the big blind, who three-bet to 36,500.

Hallay quickly folded, but Tas moved all in from the cutoff for 87,000. That got rid of Habib, but Gavrilovich called to put Tas at risk.

Ismail Tas: {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}
Jenya Gavrilovich: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Tas had to fade a straight draw after the {k-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{q-Hearts} flop in addition to Gavrilovich's two overcards. The turn came the harmless {4-Clubs}, while Tas made a set on the {7-Spades} river as he more than doubled his stack.
