Hassad Takes Two Big Ones

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

On a board of {q-Hearts}{5-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{k-Spades}, Nemer Hassad moved all in first to act. Hasan Anter folded and fell to 11.45 million.

A couple of hands later, the board read {5-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Hassad bet all three streets. On the river his 1,400,000-chip bet was called by Anter and Hassad tabled {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. Anter was unable to beat it and now the two players have nearly identical stacks.
