Mirrasouli Makes an Early Jump Up the Counts
Level 40
: Blinds 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Christopher Battenfield min-raised to 4,000,000 from middle position and Amir Mirrasouli called from the hijack.
On the 9♣10♦5♦ flop, Battenfield took his time before making a bet of 4,500,000. Mirrasouli responded by instantly shoving for 20,700,000 and Battenfield quickly called.
Amir Mirrasouli: 8♦7♦
Christopher Battenfield: K♠10♠
A huge flop for Mirrasouli and he did improve on the 8♠ turn, but still trailed the top pair of Battenfield.
Everything changed on the J♥ river, as Mirrasouli completed his straight which saw him take down the first notable pot of the day.
