Bechahed More Than Doubles Up

Kai Cocklin

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Nazar Buhaiov opened under the gun to 200,000 and was called by Tomas Szwarcberg from middle position. Kenneth Kim then squeezed to 750,000 from the cutoff, and Sami Bechahed made it 1,800,000 from the button, leaving himself just 60,000 behind. Buhaiov and Szwarcberg both quickly folded, then Kim shoved and exposed his cards, without realizing that Bechahed hadn't yet called. Bechahed knew what he was up against and flicked in his last 60,000 chips.

Sami Bechahed: K♠K♥ All in
Kenneth Kim: K♦J♦

Kim didn't get any help from the 5♦3♣9♥A♥6♥ runout which meant Bechahed more than doubled up, and Kim's stack had a big hole in it.

Rene Nezhoda moved all-in for 1,465,000 from under the gun and Arthur Morris then called with a few chips behind. Gary Dishongh in the big blind declared that he was all-in and the dealer announced a three-way all-in as the media and camera crews rushed towards the table to see what was happening.

Morris asked for the stack size of Dishongh, who happened to have called all-in for 1,135,000, and the showdown then proceeded.

Gary Dishongh: A♦A♣ All in
Rene Nezhoda: A♥K♥ All in
Arthur Morris: 8♥8♣

The board ran out Q♥10♠4♠Q♠Q♣ and the jovial Nezhoda was eliminated in the side pot whereas Dishongh tripled up. Morris took a hit to his stack and dropped to ten big blinds.

Orson Young opened to 220,000 from early position and was called by Toby Gibson in middle position and Peter Bloch in the big blind.

Action checked through on the 7♠7♣A♠ flop and Bloch led out for 450,000 on the 5♠ turn. Both Young and Gibson called.

The 9♦ completed the board and Bloch checked to Young, who bet 1,700,000. Gibson called, but then Bloch check-raised all in for 5,260,000. Young called and Gibson tanked for some time before folding what he claimed was K♠10♠ for the nut flush.

Bloch turned over J♥7♥ for trip sevens and Young tabled A♣A♦ for aces full of sevens to take down the monster pot and eliminate Bloch from contention.
