The Defending Champion Busts
Level 14
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Murad Akhundov open raised and Mustapha Kanit defended from the big blind. Kanit then check called a bet of 40,000 on , and check called another 83,000 on the river. Kanit lead out for 240,000 or so on the river with about 110,000 behind. Akhundov shoved all in and Kanit called it off. Murad Akhundov showed for the flopped set and rivered full house. Kanit mucked his and left the tournament area.
Kanit won in this very event last year and finished runner up in the �100,000 Super High Roller yesterday, but came up short here today. He finished in 24th place in a hand going on while the clock was already paused. Down to 23 instead of 24.
