One of our PokerStars Blog colleagues just brought in a hand where Salman Behbehani yet again took down a big pot.
The flop showed 
when Philipp Gruissem and Eric Sfez checked to Behbehani who bet 2,500. Gruissem made the call and Sfez proceeded to move all in for 25,800. Behbehani made the call and Gruissem went into the tank.
After a while Gruissem folded 
face up and that turned out to be a very wise decision.
Behbehani showed and he had the winning hand after the board ran out , 
. In the rush we did not catch Sfez's cards but he was knocked out.
