Ensan Cracks Aces to Stay Alive
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Erik Bauer opened to 3,500 from the button and Antoine Hasbani called from the small blind. Hossein Ensan raised to 20,500, leaving 6,500 behind from the big blind. Bauer called before Hasbani bumped it up to 60,000. Ensan called for his tournament life ahead of Bauer returning his cards to the dealer.
Hossein Ensan: K?J?
Antoine Hasbani: A?A?
Ensan paired up on the K?9?5? flop and took the lead with two pair on the J? turn. The 10? gave him the checkmark, and the EPT champion picked up a nice pot before the break.
