Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Action folded around to Moncef Karoui, who moved all in from the button for 160,000. Gilles Sebbane quickly called in the small blind and had Karoui well covered as players flipped their cards.
Moncef Karoui: J♣10♦
Gilles Sebbane: A♦9♠
The board ran out A♣Q♦8♣9♥2♣. Sebbane paired his ace on the flop, but Karoui picked up a backdoor straight draw, which he completed on the turn to double up his stack.
