Aug 03, '14
Zia Khosravi moved all in from middle position for his last 141,000 and was called by Charlie Nguyen on the button.
Khosravi tabled 9
9
and was in the lead against Nguyen’s 55
. The dealer put the 5 in the window as he spread a flop of 645, putting Nguyen in the lead.
“You think you’re going anywhere?” said Tyler Morris to Khosravi as he was bemoaning his bad luck.
The turn was the 8, which gave Khosravi a straight draw and the river was the 7, which filled Khosravi’s straight and doubled him up to 340,000.
“You knew it,” said Khosravi to Morris. “You knew I was going to hit it.”
“You were like 90% to get there,” joked Morris.
Nguyen slips to 560,000 as the players are just a couple hands away from a break.
