Zobian Sends Matakis Out
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Ian Matakis moved all in for his last 30,000 from middle position and Aram Zobian raised in the cutoff. A player in the big blind moved their entire stack into the middle with Zobian snapping it off to put both of his opponents at risk.
Ian Matakis: 9♥9♦
Big Blind Player: K♣J♦
Aram Zobian: A♥A♠
Zobian had both of his opponents crushed and remained ahead on the 2♦2♥J♣ flop. The J♥ turn, however, vaulted the big blind into the lead but it did not last long as the A♣ river completed the board to hand the entire pot to Zobian and send the presumptive 2023 WSOP POY out just inside the money.
