Al-Kubasi Goes For It All on the River

David Salituro

Nível 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Around 350,000 was in the pot as Ali Al-Kubasi and Mehmet Berk Deniz went to the river on a completed board of 8♣8♠J♣K♦2♥.

Al-Kubasi, in the big blind, then pushed all in for 600,000 and Deniz tanked for a moment before sliding in a tower of chips to call.

Al-Kubasi turned over K♣4♣ for kings and eights, then began pumping his fist when Deniz showed just Q♣J♥ for a pair of jacks as Al-Kubasi doubled up.

Dietrich Fast was among the players recently to hit the rail.
