Khalil Gets Busy

Ali Khalil and entourage - even money on whether they are bodyguards or security...
Ali Khalil and entourage - even money on whether they are bodyguards or security...
Ali Khalil called us over to his table recently to apparently back up his claims to the table that he was a fish.

We confirmed that status and asked why they were asking.

"I just lost a pot to this spastic when he rivered a straight..." continued Khalil as the next hand was dealt.

Khalil raised it up to 500 from under the gun and found a caller in the big blind.

The flop was {7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and action checked to Khalil who fired 725. He was met with a check-raise of around 2,000 more before Khalil declared himself all in for another 10,400 in chips.

After some friendly banter between the two that involved discussions of lathering, hairy backs and cuddling, his opponent folded and Khalil raked in the pot to jump back to around 22,500 chips.
