[user66118]

Sherif Zacca opened the pot with a raise to 25,000 from middle position, and only Patrick Chucri came along from the button. Heads up then, the flop brought {9-Diamonds}

. Both players checked, and the turn card revealed the {5-Spades}

. Zacca fired out now with a delayed continuation bet of 22,000, and Chucri quickly called.

The river card was the {7-Spades}

, and Zacca again passed. The dealer thought Chucri checked behind, but he stopped her and announced a bet of 30,000. After some quick deliberation, Zacca made the call. Chucri sat nodding his head for several seconds before tapping the felt in that 'good call' gesture. He turned over {A-Spades}

, and Zacca tabled the winning {Q-Hearts}

.

After that exchange, Chucri has slipped back to 80,000 while Zacca is moving in the right direction today. He's up to 275,000 here in the early going.
