UTG, Mohammad Joian opened to 125,000. Action eventually came to Kourosh Arshadnejad, who moved all in for 1,705,000 from the Button. Joian didn’t hesitate a second; he made the call in a heartbeat.
Kourosh Arshadnejad: A♥K♠
Mohammad Joian: A♠A♦
“Nice hand,” Arshadnejad granted his opponent once the cards were revealed. “Surely not,” this reporter was thinking to himself as the dealer revealed the J♣Q♣4♥ flop. Well, would you look at that: Arshadnejad improved to a straight on the 10♥, and the 9♦ river didn’t bring the chop Joian hoped for. He was covered for Arshadnejad and was eliminated in eighth place for £790.
Kourosh Arshadnejad: 2,510,000
Mohammad Joian: 0
