Al Fakih Sets the Trap Again
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Sal Al Fakih limped in in early position, as did Petar Kalev on the button and Claudio Coelho in the small blind. Justin Boyle checked his option in the big blind.
Action checked to Kalev on a flop of 10♦A♥6♥, who bet out 40,000. Coelho called, Boyle folded, and Al Fakih raised to 140,000. Kalev called and Coelho elected to raise to 450,000. Al Fakih called off the bet for his last 410,000 and Kalev got out of the way.
Sal Al Fakih: A♠A♦
Claudio Coelho: A♣4♦
The turn and river came the J♦ and 2♦, respectively, and Al Fakih won a huge pot.
