Antoine Abou Khalil Annihilates Ace King

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Antoine Abou Khalil
Antoine Abou Khalil

A third player had 15,000 in the middle already, but decided against calling after some tanking. In the meantime, Antoine Abou Khalil and his right hand neighbor both had all of their chips in the middle.

Time for a showdown, and Abou Khalil turned out to be well ahead. His {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades} was up against {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and didn't get into too much trouble: {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{J-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. Besides his opponent gaining some additional outs on the turn, nothing all too exciting for Abou Khalil, and he expanded his stack to just under 120,000.

Hakim Loses a Bunch

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

On a {10-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}-flop, two players checked to Jeffrey Hakim on the button. The Lebanese player bet out 13,000 from the button, and just a player in mid-position made the call, the other player folded.

The {3-Clubs} fell on the turn, and action checked once more to Hakim. Hakim bet out a hefty 23,500, and his opponent immediately shoved all in. Hakim thought about it for just about ten seconds, and laid it down.

Nitsche Not Nitting

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Well, we're not sure what he opened with, but he just fired three bullets, and that's something the railbirds want to see.

Dominik Nitsche opened under the gun to 2,700, and just the big blind made the call.

{2-Spades}{J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} - check (big blind) - bet 3,500 (Nitsche) - call (big blind)
{2-Spades}{J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} - check (big blind) - bet 7,000 (Nitsche) - call (big blind)
{2-Spades}{J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {J-Spades} - check (big blind) - bet 8,500 (Nitsche) - fold (big blind)
