Ojeil Hangs On to Bust Fazio
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Paul Runcan raised to 24,000 in middle position and was called by Felix Schneiders in the cutoff, as well as Olivier Fazio and Chady Ojeil in the blinds.
All four players checked the 9♥6♠5♣ flop. Ojeil then bet 75,000 on the 10♣ turn, and the table folded around to Fazio who moved all in. Ojeil snap-called.
Ojeil showed 10♦10♥ for a set, while Fazio had K♣J♣ for straight and flush draws. The 2♥ river was no help, and Ojeil secured the pot.
The stacks were counted down, and Ojeil had Fazio's remaining 300,000 covered to earn the knockout.
"Celebrate a little bit," Runcan said to Ojeil after the hand.
"I'm always happy," Ojeil replied.
