Chaoui Triples Up; Busts Next Hand
Mehdi Chaoui moved all in for 5,600 from the cutoff and was called by Svetlana Aubakirova from the small blind. Aubakirova had around 15,000 left behind and Laurent Michot then put her all-in from the big blind. After a few moments, Aubakirova called off her stack.
Mehdi Chaoui: 
Svetlana Aubakirova: 
Laurent Michot: 
Michot was on course for a double knockout following the 
flop and 
turn.
Chaoui then begged for an "ace on the river." His wishes were granted and he tripled up after the 
river hit the felt while Aubakirova was eliminated.
The very next hand, Chaoui moved all in with pocket sevens and was called by the pocket queens held by Johann Beaudet. He was unable to find a seven on the runout and busted.
As the hands took place, Ian Drake joined the table.
