Bechahed Triples Up
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Sami Bechahed moved all in for 15,000 under the gun and Ranno Sootla called in middle position. Diogo Duarte then reshoved on the button and Sootla, with around 50,000 remaining, took a minute before folding.
Sami Bechahed: K♣9♣ 
Diogo Duarte: A♦Q♣
"I think we had the same hand," Duarte said to Sootla, who shook his head.
"Ace-queen is the hand I wanted to see," Bechahed said as he and Duarte saw the flop came J♦9♦4♣. Bechahed took the lead with a pair of nines, and Duarte couldn't catch up on the 2♥ turn or 3♣ river as Bechahed tripled up.
"You bust me?" he asked Sootla after the hand.
"No," Sootla replied.
