Ali Calls it Off on the River
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Action folded around to Rami Hammoud who raised to 1,400 from the cutoff. Yousri Ali was in the small blind and counted out a three-bet worth 6,500. Hammoud made the call and both players headed to a K♠9♣7♣ flop.
Action checked through to bring out the 6♠ turn card, on which action checked through once more.
Hammoud paused briefly and eyed down Ali's stack before maving all-in to put Ali to a decision with the smaller stack. Ali did have a brief moment of thought but was pretty quick to call and turn over the K♥K♦, easily beating the A♥Q♦ held by Hammoud and good for a full double.
