Bilem Busts, Mifsud Spikes the Turn
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Alexander Fradlin had opened from under the gun and Mehdi Bilem had shoved for around 8,000 from middle position. Brandon Mifsud shoved in his stack of just over 16,000 from the big blind, and Fradlin called, which put two players at risk.
Mehdi Bilem: 9♦4♥ 
Brandon Mifsud: A♣8♥
Alexander Fradlin: A♥Q♠
Bilem was on a wild adventure, but surprisingly had live cards and decent equity against the holdings of his two opponents. However, a 3♥K♦K♣ flop kept Fradlin in the lead, but an 8♠ on the turn paired Mifsud's eight to send him out in front. Nothing changed on the 5♦ river, which left Bilem out the door and gave Mifsud a stack of around 40,000.
