Ali Khalil The Psychic

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

If Ali Khalil ever wants to quit poker, he may have a future as a psychic. Ethier that, or he was just being hopeful.

After a middle-position player made a small raise, three players, including Khalil in late position, made the call. Just as the dealer was about to turn the cards over Khalili said, "Let's see a king-four-seven flop please."

When the flop fell {k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{5-Clubs} the players at the table all had something to say, as the play was checked around to the psychic Khalil and he made it 1,700. One of the players didn't believe Khalil and made the check-raise, pushing his stack all in. Khalil snap-called and showed his {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} for bottom set. The {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} of his opponent would need some help, but it wouldn't come as the turn and river bricked out.

Khalil now sits with 61,000.
