Amsellem Carves Up Turkie

Level 6 : Blinds 800/1,500, 1,500 ante
Paul Amsellem
Paul Amsellem

Paul Amsellem just stacked a player and brought his stack up to around 230,000 as the penultimate break looms closer.

On a 22Q flop with around 70,000 in the middle, Wissam Turkie bet 10,000 from the hijack and Amsellem clicked it to 20,000 on the button. Turkie called.

A 6 landed on the turn and Turkie shoved for around 50,000, which Amsellem snap-called.

Wissam Turkie: QJ All in
Paul Amsellem: KK

Amsellem had his man right where he wanted him and Turkie needed to find one of two outs in order to stay alive. The 3 wasn't the card that Turkie needed, which meant he made his way to the exit while Amsellem raked in a chunky pot.
