After an open by Nenad Dukic in early position, Thomas Eychenne on the button three-bet to 1,800,000. In the small blind, Mousa Barakat four-bet all in for 5,350,000. Dukic folded, but Eychenne seemed to face a tough decision. And after some time, he eventually called.
Mousa Barakat: A?K?
Thomas Eychenne: A?5?
Eychenne didn’t look happy. But a small smile appeared on his face on the flop 7?3?4? that gave him a straight draw. And he didn’t have to sweat as the straight was completed directly on the turn 2?.
After the river 9?, Eychenne claimed the pot and eliminated Barakat in 11th place for $42,900.
The next player eliminated will be the bubble boy of the final table.
