Kamel Eliminates Garcia With Big Call
Dimitar Danchev opened for 12,000 and Tamer Kamel right next to him made the call. Myro Garcia on the button squeezed to 40,000 and both blinds folded. Danchev did the same, but Kamel paid the extra money to see a flop.
Both players checked on 
. Kamel led out for 35,000 once the 
hit the turn. Garcia didn't need much time to make the call.
The river came the 
and Kamel bet out 55,000. Garcia was done with the passive approach and announced allin for 135,500 more than the 55,000 Kamel already had in there.
It was a big moment for Kamel and he needed some time. While the level was almost done, and the vouchers for the buffet upstairs were handed out, Kamel counted out his stack. He wouldn't have much left would he call and be wrong. But eventually he did make the call.
Garcia tabled his 
with some frustration. Kamel showed his 
and so eliminated his Brazilian opponent.
