Dany Georges Brings Peace to the Miranda Room

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Cheers and claps erupted from the Miranda room as William Kassouf hit the rail.

"Can I get a thank you?!" Dany Georges asked, bowing. "We can all have peace and quiet now!"

We asked Georges to recount the hand for us. According to him, he had {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} against Kassouf's {J-}{10-}. They got it all in on the turn when both of them made a straight on a {8-}{9-}{10-}{Q-} board, but Georges had a redraw to a flush, and he made it on the diamond river.

"I had the redraw so I was trying to get him to put his money in," Georges said. "I don't really care about knocking him out, I'm just playing my game and I'm happy to make everybody else happy now that they have some peace."

Kassouf was graceful in the exit, wishing everyone good luck and quickly heading to rail.
