Schanaa Turns the Goods
Level 5
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Sarkis Akopian opened to 2,500 from under the gun and received calls from Benjamin Hamnett in middle position, Albert Diwan on the button and Assad Al Schanaa in the big blind.
The flop came 9?6?4? and Schannaa lead out with a bet of 3,500. Akopian and Hamnett folded while Diwan made the call.
Schanaa fired a second barrel for 10,000 on the J? turn which was once again called by Diwan.
On the 8? river Schanaa sized down with a bet of 5,000 and Diwan called.
Diwan tabled 10?9? for second pair while Schanaa showed down J?6? for a turned two pair to take the pot.
