Magalashvili Wins Classic Flip For Stacks

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Michael Magalashvili
Michael Magalashvili

A player opened to 60,000 from under the gun before Michael Magalashvili three-bet to 180,000 from early position. Action then folded around to Maher Nouira in the small blind who four-bet jammed for 1,350,000. The big blind and original raiser quickly vacated the pot to send the action back to Magalashvili who pondered his decision for some time. He did end up making the call with the covering stack to put Nouira at risk.

Maher Nouira: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Michael Magalashvili: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

It was a classic flip and one for over 2,000,000. What began as a fair fight quickly became one sided after the flop landed {7-Clubs}{5-Spades}{q-Clubs}. The {k-Spades} turn ended matters prior to the inconsequential {9-Diamonds} river to send Nouira packing while Magalashvili's heater of a day continues.
