Mhiri Gets Richer, Stacks Barka
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Chakib Mhiri opened from the button and Samy Barka shoved from the small blind for around 25,000. When it got back to Mhiri, he flicked in the call.
Samy Barka: 4♣4♥ 
Chakib Mhiri: A♦J♦
It was a fair flip that favored the big-stacked Mhiri after the flop of 8♣A♣J♣ improved him to two pair. Barka did pick up a flush draw, but never managed to find it as the 10♠10♦ runout sent him to the rail just after the second break.
