Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action was on the river on a board of A♥K♣10♥K♦3♣ and Hala Karam checked. [Removed:526] moved all in to put his opponent under pressure for the rest of her stack.

The cameras crowded around and Karam was in the spotlight as she used her full stack of time bank cards before eventually announcing her call. [Removed:526] flipped over A♦J♥ for two pair, aces and kings, with a jack kicker.

"Ah, sh*t, no split!" said Karam, as she revealed A♣4♣ for two pair with a weaker kicker. [Removed:526] won the pot and Karam was eliminated.

"Thank you guys," she said as she left the table.
