MacIntyre Downed Again
Level 6
: 300/500, 500 ante
A five-bet jam with 
came at the worst possible time for Fraser MacIntyre, as he ran straight into 
and found no help on the board 
. He then started a massage once more, the last one had lasted 10 minutes before he was knocked out on the first bullet.
Sure enough, history repeated itself, as MacIntyre was all in for the last 11,800 with 
versus and ended up drawing dead on the turn of a board 
.

Khalek Busts One
Level 6
: 300/500, 500 ante
Abu Hamza Khalek raised it up to 1,200 from early position and a short stack jammed for 9,400 from one seat over. Khalek asked for a count and let his shot clock run down to five seconds before tossing in two T-5,000 chips.
Khalek was well ahead preflop with 
versus and said "good luck bro" to his opponent. The 
flop kept Khalek ahead, but he fell behind on the turn. Plenty of outs remained for the Brit and he got there with the 
river.
"The ace always comes," he joked and raked in the pot.
