Mozafarian Calls Correctly

Frank Visser

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

With 7,500 chips in the pot, Martin Ilavsky jammed his stack of 15,000 in the middle from the hijack on a board of 6?10?J?7?. This move confused his opponent Amir Mozaffarian, who asked the dealer to spread the pot before trying to figure out what his Ilavsky had.

Ultimately, Mozaffarian put in the call to put Ilavsky at risk and the cards went on their backs.

Martin Ilavsky: K?Q?
Amir Mozaffarian: Q?10?

Ilavsky had some outs with his open-ender but they failed to come in on the 2? river. Mozaffarian was shipped the pot, even though he thought his opponent had made a flush at first, and Ilavsky said his goodbyes as he left the table.
