Kapalas Busts Rahman in Huge Pot

Samer Rahman isn't afraid to play big pots. Action folded to him in middle position and he opened with a raise to 30,000. The button was Georgios Kapalas reraised to 85,000. Rahman made the call.

The flop came down {8-Spades} {7-Hearts} {4-Spades}. Rahman was first to act and checked. Kapalas bet a hefty 110,000. Rahman stayed right along with him and made the call.

The turn brought the {9-Diamonds} and again Samer checked. Kapalas reached for more chips this time and made it 175,000 to go. Rahman stared at his opponent and then made the call.

After the river fell the {K-Hearts}, Rahman pushed the last of his chips into the middle. Kapalas snap-called holding the nuts -- {J-Spades} {10-Hearts}. Rahman rivered two pair with {K-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}. Rahman was eliminated with Kapalas raking in the huge pot to put him at 1.7 million.
