Barka Doubles Through Sarkis

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Wael Sarkis opened to 160,000 and called a 425,000 three-bet from Samy Barka.

The flop came K?9?8?. Sarkis checked, Barka bet 325,000 and Sarkis check-raised to 800,000. Barka moved all in for roughly 2,400,000 and Ercan snap-called with a covering stack.

Wael Sarkis: A?A?
Mustafa Ercan: K?8?

Sarkis was ahead with two pair but Barka took the lead with aces up on the 9? turn. He improved to a full house on the A? river for good measure and scored a full double up at the expense of Sarkis.

Khordbin Leaves Fryda on Fumes

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

In a preflop blind on blind confrontation, Hadi Khordbin was all in for roughly 1,500,000 and up against Victor Fryda who covered.

Hadi Khordbin: A?4?
Victor Fryda: A?10?

Fryda was in a great position to score the knockout but the 4?6?9? flop left him drawing to three outs. He couldn't catch a ten on the 7? turn or K? river and was left with under three big blinds while Khordbin scored a critical double up.

Nichan Khorchidian opened to 180,000 from early position and received a call from Christophe Panetti in the cutoff. Azamat Tulepbergenov then moved all in for 1,400,000. Khorchidian raised all in with a covering stack and Panetti got out of the way.

Azamat Tulepbergenov: J?J?
Nichan Khorchidian: Q?Q?

Tulepbergenov was in bad shape against the bigger pocket pair and failed to improve on the A?10?3?7?8? runout resulting in his elimination while Khorchidian continued to add chips to his stack.
