Kobbling Clobbers Khouiss

Sam Khouiss - Eliminated
Sam Khouiss - Eliminated
In early position, Sam Khouiss raised to 800. Chris Chronis and Celina Lin called, and action came to Karsten Kobbing in the small blind. He squeezed the table, putting in a raise to 3,700. Khouiss called, while the rest of the players got out of the way.

The flop brought {4-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {A-Hearts}. Kobbing continued out with 3,000 chips, and Khouiss moved all in for about 12,000. Without hesitation, Kobbing made the call, having Sam covered.

Showdown:
Kobbing: {A-Clubs} {K-Spades}
Khouiss: {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}

Fourth and fifth streets were the {6-Clubs} and {2-Spades} respectively, and Kobbing's king kicker played. He eliminates the dangerous Sam Khouiss from the table, chipping his way up to 46,000.
