Tahtouh In Good Shape

A player in middle position opened with a raise to 2,700 before Emad Tahtouh shoved over the top for all of his chips. The action was folded to Mick "The Hoon" Stanton in the big blind, who called all in for his final 3,400. The original raiser stepped out of the way as the cards were revealed.

Tahtouh held {A-Diamonds}

but trailed the {6-Diamonds}

of Stanton. That is, until the board was spread {A-Clubs}

to pair the ace of Tahtouh and eliminate "The Hoon" from today's field.

Tahtouh is now looking dangerous with 25,600 chips.
