Ishikawa Climbs in the Counts
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Farian Ishikawa opened to 1,700 in early position and picked up calls from a player in middle position, the button and Matt Stout in the small blind.
The flop went 6♦Q♣K♦ and Ishikawa checked to the middle position player who bet 1,700. The button and Matt Stout called before Ishikawa raised it to 8,700. This time only the button called and stayed in the pot.
The turn fell the 3♠ and after some thinking, Ishikawa shoved for 28,100. His opponent tanked a minute and called all in with a stack around 20,000.
Ishikawa flipped over A♣K♥ for top pair, while his opponent held 2♦5♦. The latter didn't find any of the outs he needed on the 8♣ and Ishikawa took down the pot while his opponent left the event.
