Fares Folds the River; El Asmar Moves up to 3 Million in Chips

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

From early position Muhyedine Fares raised and got a call from Hady El Asmar. Both players saw a flop of {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, and Fares continued for 85,000 and got called from El Asmar.

The turn was {A-Diamonds}, and both players checked and saw the {4-Diamonds} on the river. Muhyedine Fares thought for a short while before betting 127,000 into a pot of 371,000.

El Asmar counted out a number of yellow chips worth 25,000 each, and raised to 350,000 which forced a fold from Fares. With that hand El Asmar moved up into the chip lead with a stack of 3.1 million.
