[user22113]

This one had some serious twists and turns in it. After a player opened the pot with a raise, Thariq Aamad moved all in. One player called him from the button, and the Big Blind took a long time before calling. Thariq showed {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{K-Hearts}

, the first player who called for his last 11,000 turned over {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

, the big blind, who called for his last 30,000, turned over {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

.

The flop was {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{2-Spades}

, meaning each player was drawing veeeery thin. The turn was the {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

, bringing the player who had the smallest chance to win out in front on the hand. The most interesting card in the deck falls on the river, the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

. The player who had queens goes beserk, and the player who had the jacks just hangs his head.

Meanwhile, Thariq rakes in 135,000 chips with his flush, and he the clear chip leader for day 1b.
