Poulter Doubles via Kashi
Level 19
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Attention was drawn to Table 5, as Arian Kashi loudly thumped the table and let out a squeal of anguish.
Kashi had 9♦8♦ against Stephen Poulter's A♦J♦, with the board reading 8♠5♦4♦3♣J♣. All the chips had hit the middle, and Kashi had been ahead with top pair and the flush draw.
But Poulter had the better draw and two overcards to go with it, and he binked the river.
Kashi was absolutely disgusted with his misfortune.
