Rayan Nathan limps in with KQ in early position and we see a flop of K-4-3 with a flush draw out there. SB leads out and bets. Rayan, putting him on a flush draw or top pair with a weaker kicker, pushes all-in. SB calls and turns over K-3 for 2 pairs. Rayan receives no help on the turn or river and is out.

Tony Hachem dominating!

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Two limpers into the pot and Tony Hachem raises to 450 in the SB, BB (100) folds, Jimmy Soo counts his chips, rubs his forehead and folds. Matthew Hilger asks him why he didn't call because he only has a marginal hand in the cutoff showing Q-10o before mucking. Tony Hachem shows A-Ko.
