Mokhtar Eliminated by Papangelis
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Three ways to the K♠3♣2♦ flop, Tobias Hausen checked in an early position. Rayane Mokhtar bet 3,500 in the cutoff and Eleftherios Papangelis raised to 8,500 on the button. Hausen tank-folded while Mokhtar called.
Both checked the 7♠ turn and the 9♠ river completed the board. Mokhtar now jammed for around 13,000 and Papangelis snap-called with the 9♥9♦. Mokhtar only had A♥A♠ and was knocked out right before their table broke.
"What a strange hand ... if he doesn't do that, you double. I had the king," Hausen told Mokhtar and then added "for whatever reason, I thought he had nines".
