Eslami Off to a Nice Start

We arrived at Ali Eslami's table just in time to see the small blind check a flop of {Q-Hearts}{2-Spades}{K-Hearts}, allowing Ali Eslami to bet 425 from middle position. The next player quickly got out of the way, but both the hijack and small blind opted to call.

When the dealer burned and turned the {K-Diamonds}, the small blind took the initiative and bet 800. Eslami thought for a moment before putting in a raise to 1,800. It proved to be enough as both players folded to Eslami, who showed {K-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}.
