Sam Youssef Likes Quads

Sam Youssef got his remaining 22,000 all-in pre-flop with T-T, and found himself in a race situation with his opponent's {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}. Youssef hit a set on the {10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Spades} flop and then made quads when the case ten fell on the river. He's now up to 50,000.

Elezra Takes a Hit

On a board showing {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, Michael Chrisanthopoulos led out with a 6,000 bet. Eli Elezra then kicks it up to 25,000 which prompts Michael to move all in over the top for 12,000 more.

Eli made the call and tabled {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}; Chrisanthopoulos produced one better, revealing {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}.

The turn brought the {Q-Hearts} which was an interesting card, as it gave Michael a set, but also gave Elezra some additional outs for a flush. The river was the {8-Clubs}, not one that Elezra was looking for, and he was left with 23,500 in chips.

Things were looking grim with one card to go for the man with two first names, but the {5-Hearts} that fell on the river gave him the help he needed to stay alive.

Karib stacked up 28,000 in new chips after the hand.
