Al-Shanti Wins Flip with the Lucky Hand
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
After some preflop back-and-forth, Abdullah Al-Shanti and Felipe Ketzer got all their chips into the middle, with Al-Shanti at risk.
Abdullah Al-Shanti: 9♥9♦
Felipe Ketzer: A♥Q♣
"This is the lucky hand at this table!" Al-shanti proclaimed, pointing at his nines, and sure enough, the flop came out 7♣9♠8♠ to give him top set for a big lead.
The runout of Q♠6♣ changed nothing and Al-Shanti was pushed the pot for the double.
