Jimmy Habib opened the betting with a raise to 106,000, and the outspoken Nicolas Zakhem moved all in for an additional 493,000 on top, having Habib covered by about 60,000 should he choose to gamble. When the action folded around, Jimmy would go deep into the tank before finally spilling all of his chips out into the middle of the table, calling all in for his tournament life.

Showdown
Habib: {10-Spades} {10-Clubs}
Zakhem: {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}

The flop was a big dry desert for Zakhem, coming out {9-Spades} {5-Clubs} {2-Clubs}. Still, he continued to plead for an ace, and his prayers were answered as the dealer flipped over the {A-Hearts} on fourth street. The river {Q-Diamonds} filled out the board, ending Jimmy Habib's day just one spot shy of the final table. His tenth-place finish is worth close to $40,000.

Henry B. raised to 60,000 from early position, and Bassam Srour moved all in for a total of 204,000. When it folded back to Henry, he went deep into the tank before calling with {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs}. Srour tabled {8-Diamonds} {8-Clubs}, racing for his tournament life.

The board would frown on him though, coming out {J-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {A-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}. Finding his ace on the flop, Henry has taken care of Bassam Srour, eliminating him in 11th place.

Youssef Mouanness pushed from under the gun for around 160,000. With the action folding round to Jimmy Habib in the big blind; he eventually made the call.

Moanness: {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}
Habib: {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

The flop of {5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts} locked the hot pot Habib apart from a runner-runner chop.

When the {8-Diamonds} and {Q-Diamonds} fell on the turn and river, Mouanness headed to the rail in 12th place as Habib climbed to 460,000 and change.

Kamar Rallies Back

Basam Srour opened with a min raise to 40,000 from early position. Kamal Bejjani and Henry B. put in the call before Fadi Kamar moved all in for a total of 93,000. Srour would think long and hard before folding while Bejjani quickly called. Henry B. ducked out of the way, and it was heads up for Kamar's tournament life. He was ahead though, turning over {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} to Bejjani's {A-Diamonds} {10-Spades}.

The flop was a dreadful sweat for Kamar as the dealer spread {J-Spades} {8-Spades} {2-Spades}. Needing to dodge spades and tens, the all-in player somehow faded two more cards as the turn and river blanked off with the {6-Hearts} and {7-Hearts} respectively.

The short stack is back in the game now, sitting much healthier with 280,000.

Sassine Ghassan opened with a raise to 60,000 from late position, and Nicolas Zakhem moved all in for 231,000 from the small blind. When it came back on Ghassan, he instantly called with the covering stack.

Showdown
Ghassan: {6-Hearts} {6-Spades}
Zakhem: {A-Hearts} {5-Spades}

Once again, Zakhem seemed confident in his ability to come from behind, and this time the dealer would oblige him. The board came out {Q-Spades} {10-Clubs} {J-Spades} {A-Clubs} {2-Hearts}, and Zakhem's aces notch him a double up. He's back up to 475,000 now, putting Ghassan on a dangerously short stack.
