And becomes the tournament chip leader in the process. Already possessing a huge stack Makhija reraised to 7,200 after Shamseddin raised to 2,500. Shamseddin then shipped in the rest of his sizable stack and Makhija made the call.

The race was on--Shamseddin had A-K to Makhija's QQ. The flop came...A-10-J, putting Soheil in the lead. And on the turn, a King, giving Amit the straight. Shamseddin didn't make his boat on the river and Mahkija added to his already massive stack.
