Tahtouh Tumbles

[user80015]

Level 8 : 400/800, 75 ante

With Emad Tahtouh walking around the poker room chatting to a few friends, and his recently acquired seat on table twenty-six not occupying any chips, only one can assume that he had been felted.

Approaching Tahtouh, he detailed to us that he opened the button to 2,200 only to have Manny Stavropoulos three-bet the small blind to 5,000. Tahtouh pushed his remaining 23,000 and Stavropoulos made the call.

Tahtouh was in a race holding {10-} {8-} against Stavropoulos' {7-} {7-} , but when the final board was spread, Tahtouh failed to improve and was forced to the rail.
