Ipekoglu Unphased Despite Doubling Up Opponent

Level 24
: 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Umutcan Ipekoglu opened to 60,000 from under the gun and Rashad Iskandarov moved all in for 465,000. Ipekoglu called with a covering stack to put Iskandarov at risk.
Rashad Iskandarov: A?K?
Umutcan Ipekoglu: A?Q?
Iskandarov had his opponent pipped and remained ahead on the 2?4?9?A?7? runout to score a full double up through Ipekoglu.
Despite the minor setback, Ipekoglu's stack of nearly 3,000,000 is still one of the biggest currently in the tournament.
