Picking up the action on a turn of K♣Q♣2♦8♥, Stanislau Melhui made a bet of 50,000 into a pot of 120,000 from the big blind.

"Gift for you," Imad Derwiche stated as he piled in his stack of 121,000. from the cutoff. However, Melhui did not consider Derwiche's move a gift. He grimaced and folded his cards before the end of his shot clock.

"Never bluff the fish," Derwiche concluded.

Level 4 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Imad Derwiche was seen putting a tiny bet of 30,000 into a huge pot of 185,000 from early position. The board was dealt up until the turn and read 10♥3♣3♠9♣ and Youness Barakat called on the button.

The 6♣ river saw Derwiche size down to 25,000, after which Barakat put his opponent all-in for 114,000. "Do I win with a flush?" Derwiche asked.

Without getting a response, he slammed in a call.

"You win," Barakat declared as he tabled A♥K♦9♥8♥ for two pair.

Derwiche showed K♣7♠4♣2♥ for a king-high flush and raked in the pot.

"Never bluff a fish," he repeated as he stacked his newly acquired chips.
