Hand #168: Adrian Mateos folded his button and Muhyedine Fares in the small blind found {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} and made it 200,000. Hady El Asmar with {8-Hearts}{6-Clubs} made the call.

The flop came {2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{8-Diamonds}, hitting El Asmar. Fares bet 275,000 into the pot of 430,000.

El Asmar raised it up to 635,000 and Fares wasn't folding, he moved 2,275,000 over the line and El Asmar called all in!

"That escalated quickly" commentator James Hartigan said on the live stream.

El Asmar needed an eight or six, but it wouldn't come. The {J-Hearts} on the turn was as blank as they could come, and so was the {Q-Spades} on the river.

The aces held up for Fares, and El Asmar hit the rail in third place for €486,000.
