Massive Pot for Hakim

Maxime Taldir

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Mohamed Hakim raised to 40,000 from the hijack, then Damien Luis three-bet to 140,000 from the small blind. The big blind folded, and Hakim called.

On a flop of K?7?J?, Luis continued with a bet of 110,000, but Hakim raised to 240,000. However, Luis wanted more, so he three-bet to 450,000. Once again, Hakim made the call.

The Q? came on the turn, and Luis fired a second barrel of 400,000. And after Hakim called, he decided to go all-in for his last 300,000 chips on the river 6?. Hakim called.

Mohamed Hakim: 10?7?
Damien Luis: A?K?

With top pair, Luis ran into Hakim's flush. Down to 40,000 chips, he was eliminated a few hands later while Hakim now holds 2,700,000 chips.
