Verbitchi Gets It in with a Massive Draw
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
The pot stood at around 12,000 with three players looking at a board of Q♥4♥A♠8♠.
Nichita Verbitchi, who was under the gun, bet out 5,500, a player in middle position called and Abdel-hakim Khelifa, on the button, raised to 18,200. Verbitchi moved all in for 55,300 and the player in middle position folded. Khelifa asked for a count and made the call.
Nichita Verbitchi: J♥10♥ 
Abdel-hakim Khelifa: A♥Q♣
Verbitchi was behind Khelifa's two pair, but had outs to both a straight and a flush. The 5♦ didn't oblige for Verbitchi and he was sent to the rail.
