El-Siblani Cracks Aces
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Tomasz Sczerbinski opened to 3,000 from early position and Ali El-Siblani clicked it back to 6,000 from middle position. Hassan Dahmani then four-bet to 15,000 from the hijack, forcing Sczerbinski out of the hand while El-Siblani made the call.
The flop came 9♥7♥Q♣. El-Siblani moved all in, covering Dahmaniwho had roughly 50,000. Dahmani snap-called and was at risk.
Hassan Dahmani: A♥A♦ 
Ali El-Siblani: Q♠Q♦
Dahmani was in dire shape against El-Siblani's set of queens with only two outs to extend his tournament life. He could not catch an ace on the 2♠ turn or 10♣ river and made his exit from the tournament area while El-Siblani dragged in a sizable pot.
