The dealer spread a flop of and, first to act, Abdellatif led out for a pot sized bet of 45,000. Solaas quickly re-potted to put Abdellatif all-in and the Belgium player called off the rest of his stack for his tournament life.
Jonathan Abdellatif:
Espen Solaas:
Abdellatif had flopped middle set and was leading Solaas' aces, and it is easy to see why the Norwegian player was unhappy that Urbanovich had folded three hearts.
"This is my best chance for a double I think," said Abdalletif.
However, the poker gods has other ideas and while the turn kept the Belgium in front, the river saw Solaas spike a bigger set to send Abdellatif crashing out of the tournament.
