El Ojeil Shoves Small Blind
Level 17
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Action folded around to Chady El Ojeil, who pushed all in from the small blind with a short stack. Hanif Shafeghat called in the big blind with a slightly bigger stack, and players turned their cards.
Chady El Ojeil: K♦8♠
Hanif Shafeghat: Q♣9♣
El Ojeil found some security on the K♠J♥7♠ flop. Shafeghat picked up a pair of queens on the Q♦ turn, but El Ojeil held as the river came the 5♦ to double his stack.
Shafeghat was left short, but doubled up next hand to stay in contention.
