Mehdi has Christian Saying Ö-man

Action folded around to Christian Öman in the small blind who completed the bet and Mehdi Ouakhir checked his option in the big, opting to see a free flop: {A-Clubs}

. Christian quickly pulled 22,000 worth of chips off the top of his stack and slid them across the betting line. Mehdi then announced a raise, kicking it up to 52,000, which was countered by a third bet from Öman, who made it a total of 130,000 to go. After some thought, Mehdi decided to ease off the throttle and just call.

The next card off the deck was a very interesting {8-Clubs}

, though it failed to induce a bet from either player. The last card to fall was the {K-Diamonds}

and Öman passed, giving the honors to Mehdi, who slid a single stack of pink 10,000 chips into the middle, a bet worth 200,000, but before Mehdi fully released his chips, Öman had already thrown his cards into the muck.

Mehdi climbed to ~700,000 with the win, while Christian dropped back down to around 280,000.
