Khouiss Doubles Again

[user75032]

Sam Khouiss must be on his eighth life at this point. He has been short-stacked for the entire final table. With only 69,000 left in his stack, Khouiss called all in from the big blind after Christian Heich opened from the button to 100,000. Heich was in the lead with {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Spades}

against Khouiss' {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

, but Khouiss hit the flop hard: {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{7-Hearts}

{7-Spades}

gave him trip sevens. The board bricked out a very safe {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{4-Hearts}

to allow Khouiss to remain in the tournament.
