Lakhdari Continues the Roller Coaster
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
After a raising war before the flop, Omar Lakhdari was all in for his last 131,000 chips and got called by Paolo Compagno. Both players held a pocket pair, but the Frenchman was way ahead.
Lakhdari: 
Compagno: 
The flop 
gave the Frenchman top set while the 
turn provided hope of a miracle for Compagno. It was the 
river that let Lakhdari double up once again and the Frenchman is on a roller coaster ride thus far on Day 3.
