George Abi-Zeid Eliminated in 17th Place ($25,177)
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Matthew Parry raised to 125,000 from under the gun and the short-stacked George Abi-Zeid defended his big blind after weighing his options for a while.
The flop was spread 6?2?K? and Abi-Zeid checked. Parry then inquired about his opponent's stack and made a bet of 200,000, enough to put Abi-Zeid all-in. Abi-Zeid made the call and the players showed down.
George Abi-Zeid: 8?8?7?5?
Matthew Parry: A?K?J?4?
Parry had the lead with his pair of kings, but Abi-Zeid turned some outs on the 9? turn. However, the J? river was not one of them, and Abi-Zeid said his goodbyes to the table.
