Ryan Lashmar

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With four players seeing a board of 10♠7♦5♣ and roughly 10,000 already in the middle, Issam Benhaddou checked in the small blind and "Fahd" bet 7,500 from the big blind. Michael Bouvier then moved all in with a covering stack from the cutoff, folding out Masbah Ben Baba on the button and Benhaddou while "Fahd" made the call and was at risk.

"Fahd": J♣J♠
Michael Bouvier: 10♥5♥

"Fahd" had an overpair but it was in rough shape against Bouvier who had flopped two pair. Bouvier remained ahead on the Q♥A♥ runout and "Fahd" was sent to the rail while Bouvier collected a healthy pot.
