Patel Gets Big Value With Top Two; Barakat Back In
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
In a pot that approached 100,000 chips in size, Shamil Patel bet 50,000 under the gun on a completed board of 3♥6♣J♠A♦K♣. Erik Friberg spent some time in the tank, spending one of his time extensions before he threw in calling chips.
Patel showed A♣K♥J♣7♠ for aces and kings. Friberg studied his opponent's hand for a while before he nodded his head and flung his cards into the muck.
In the meantime, Youness Barakat had retaken his seat in the tournament via a fresh buy-in.
