Mustafov on Chip-Receiving End of Cooler
Level 6
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Paul Runcan raised to 2,000 in the hijack. Fahredin Mustafov called in the small blind while Markus Zimmerer defended in the big blind.
The flop fell 2♣5♣8♥. Mustafov led out for 4,000, getting a quick fold from Zimmerer's 5♠4♠. Runcan called, however, and bet 8,000 when Mustafov checked the J♣ turn.
Mustafov called before he checked the 6♦ river as well. Runcan put in 25,000 for a bet, after which Mustafov shoved all in for 111,000. Runcan spent about half a minute in the tank before flicking in the call.
Mustafov tabled 6♣4♣ for a flush, besting the two pair of Runcan, who showed his J♠8♠ before paying his opponent. Mustafov reclaimed the table chip lead, leaving Runcan relegated to just over a starting stack.
