Joumaa Flops the Nuts and Gets Paid

Level 13 : 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante
Bakhos Joumaa
Bakhos Joumaa

Mehrshad Hossein Pour opened to 7,000 from under the gun and was called by Bakhos Joumaa in middle position. Matthew Davenport three-bet to 26,500 from the button before Pour put in a four-bet to 66,000. Joumaa called and Davenport got out of the way.

Pour fired a 60,000 continuation bet on the Q34 flop which was called by Joumaa.

On the 5 turn Pour moved all in, covering Joumaa who had roughly 135,000 behind. Joumaa made the call and was at risk.

Bakhos Joumaa: QQ
Mehrshad Hossein Pour: JJ

Joumaa had flopped top set and had Pour drawing dead on the 5 turn. After the 3 river was dealt Joumaa dragged in a massive pot worth over 150 big blinds while Pour was left with under a starting stack.
