Khoury Gone, But All Smiles

Paul Khoury
Paul Khoury
Just before the break, Paul Khoury was knocked out of the field.

On the flop, the board read {J-?} {10-?} {2-?}, and Khoury check-called a bet from his opponent.

The turn brought a repeat {J-?}, and Khoury moved all in for about 4,000 chips. His opponent tanked for several moments before putting in the call, showing down {Q-?} {Q-?}. Khoury held {8-?} {10-?}, and failed to improve on the river, sending him to the rail with a smile.
