Ben Haim Climbing Back

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Amos Ben Haim

Amos Ben Haim had a rough start to his day and it continued for a couple of hours, but he's starting to climb back now. He's back up to 465,000 and it's all thanks to the worst pocket pair one can hold, deuces.

First, Ben Haim was all in from middle position with the {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}. Joao Bauer called in the big blind with the {K-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. The deuces held as the board ran out {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}.

A couple hands later, Eduardo Costa raised to 55,000 from the small blind against Ben Haim's big blind. Ben Haim moved all in from the big blind and Costa folded. Ben Haim showed the same {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}.
