Mustafov Reduces the Field by One
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Fahredin Mustafov opened to 3,000 from the hijack and Henri Lauret called from the cutoff before Piero Alioto shoved from the button for around 40,000. Mustafov called with a covering stack while Lauret got out of the way.
Piero Alioto: 10?10? 
Fahredin Mustafov: A?Q?
The A?K?K? flop gave Mustafov aces-up leaving Alioto drawing to just two outs. He failed to improve when the rest of the board ran out 2?3? and was sent to the rail while Mustafov added more chips to his stack.
