On a flop of {A-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, Seat 5 shoved all in, sending Zhi Hong Ma into the tank for several minutes.

The turn was the {A-Clubs}, the river was the {7-Clubs}, and Ma dragged a monster pot, sending his stack up to 40,000.

Khouiss vs Karib

An aggressive Sam Khouiss raises from the hijack position and the equally aggressive Karib Karib decides that it's a good spot to push the rest of his chips into the middle. Seated right next to each other, Khouiss stares him down and fires some verbal ammunition before flashing the {A-Diamonds} and mucking his hand. Karib has been battling the short stack for a lot of the day and now sits at around 10,000 while Khouiss has close to 18,000. Expect these two tournament titans to clash again sometime soon!

Karib Karib's Nut Flush Not Enough

With both players chips in the middle pre-flop, Karib Karib held {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} but found himself racing against the {6-Hearts}{6-Spades} of his opponent.

The flop was an interesting one with the {4-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} giving Karib additional outs for his flush. The turn brought the {6-Clubs} and Karib was left needing a diamond. The {4-Diamonds} hits the river and the table erupts as Karib makes the nut flush, but they soon realize that it's not enough to take the pot against his opponent's full house!
