"Belmehdi" Bursts the Money Bubble
The bubble has burst in the 2023 Unibet DeepStack Open Marrakech Main Event. "Belmehdi" had opened preflop and Nicolas Maquerre called from the small blind.
On the 9?8?6? flop Maquerre immediately moved all in and "Belmehdi", who was covered, made the call.
"Belmehdi": Q?Q?
Nicolas Maquerre: 10?8?
"Belmehdi" was ahead but had to fade many outs from Maquerre's middle pair and straight draw. The straight came in on the 7? turn leaving "Belmehdi" drawing only to three outs to chop the pot to avoid being eliminated. The 5? river was of no help and "Belmehdi" was eliminated on the stone bubble while Maquerre took down a healthy pot.
All remaining players are guaranteed at least a min-cash of MAD 12,000 but all will undoubtedly have their sights set on the top prize of MAD 625,000 (approximately €62,500)
