Kanit Gone for a Second Time
Action folded to Philipp Gruissem in the small blind and he simply moved all in to put the pressure on Mustapha Kanit, who was sitting with 13,900 in the big. There was clearly some context we missed before we arrived — perhaps Kanit saying he was going to call in such a situation — as the two were all smiles and joking around.
Kanit asked Gruissem to look in his eyes, but the man known as "Philbort" instead covered them with his hands. Kanit tried to pry them away from Gruissem's face but was unsuccessful. Again, it was all done in jest.
Kanit stated that he liked his hand; in fact, it was one of his favorites. Still, he picked up his cards and moved them forward as if he was going to fold. Then, just like that, he used his other hand to spike in his chips, much to the surprise of Gruissem.
Gruissem: 
Kanit: 
"No, I knew it," Kanit bemoaned upon discovering he had kicker problems.
The 
flop gave Gruissem trips, but Kanit was quite excited that he picked up an open-ender.
"Eight ball," he called. Unfortunately for him, the dealer did not oblige, instead putting up the 
on the turn followed by the 
on the river.
"Enjoy your tournament guys," Kanit offered before taking his leave from the tournament for good.
