Hissou Scores Double Knockout

Patrick Cole

Level 13 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Viktor Blom opened from the button to 85,000. Orpen Kisacikoglu moved all in from the small blind for 675,000. Blom called and had Kisacikoglu covered.

Orpen Kisacikoglu: Q?Q? All in
Viktor Blom: A?10?

Kisacikoglu made a flush across the monotone K?9?10?8?7? runout to secure the double up.

The very next hand. Viktor Blom was all in from the cutoff for around 350,000. Alex Foxen reraised all in for around 830,000. Sirzat Hissou then called and had both players covered.

Viktor Blom: 5?5? All in
Alex Foxen: A?K? All in
Sirzat Hissou: A?Q?

Hissou hit two pair on the flop of Q?A?2? and held across the 8? turn and 6? river to score a double knockout. Like the Terminator, Foxen said "i'll be back" as he left the tournament area, presumably to the rebuy desk. Blom instantly rebought into the event.
