Sirous Baghchehsaraie Eliminated in 22nd Place ($8,098)

Pot-Limit Omaha

Sirous Baghchehsaraie opened to 10,000 in the hijack seat, and John Monnette flatted from the cutoff seat. Brent Hanks called from the big blind as well, and it was three ways to the flop.

It came {8-Spades} {K-Clubs} {9-Hearts} , and Baghchehsaraie continued out into the pot with 31,500. Monnette quickly folded, but Hanks check-raised the pot. Baghchehsaraie had about 50,000 left behind, and he put the rest of them across the line to put himself at risk.

Showdown
Baghchehsaraie: {A-Hearts} {A-Spades} {10-Spades} {9-Diamonds}
Hanks: {7-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}

Baghchehsaraie's aces were in front for the time being, but he was going to need to fade a world of outs. The turn {4-Clubs} gave Hanks a flush draw as well, and the river {A-Clubs} locked up the knockout, runner-runner style. It's Baghchehsaraie who falls in 22nd place, and our command+V is getting a break for the rest of the day. He'll pocket $8.098 for his work over the last three days.
