Ghanem Busts Buckingham to Burst Money Bubble

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Saad Ghanem

With {9-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts} on the flop, Saad Ghanem check-raised to 45,000 from the small blind. Action folded around to Kent Buckingham for the three-bet shove to 190,000. Ghanem went deep into the tank for a few minutes, lamenting how "sexy" his hand was before finally making the call.

Buckingham turned over {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for a flopped set of eights. Ghanem showed {a-Spades}{10-Spades} for a flush draw and the chance at a straight.

The turn was {10-Hearts} and the river fell {2-Spades} to give Ghanem the flush in a celebration that included chicken noises.

The bubble is now burst and 72 players are guaranteed a min-cash of $2,137.
