Khouzami Sends Two to the Rail
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Damir Zhugralin put his last 6,000 into the middle from early position and Anthony Khouzami three-bet to 13,000 from middle position. Andrei Konopelko four-bet to 41,500 from the blinds and Khouzami five-bet shoved to put Konopelko all in. Konopelko had roughly 140,000 remaining in his stack, and after a few moments, made the call to put himself at risk.
Damir Zhugralin: K♠2♦ 
Andrei Konopelko: A♠Q♠
Anthony Khouzami: Q♥Q♣
Khouzami had both of his opponents easily covered and just had to fade a disastrous runout to add even more chips to his stack.
The runout came 5♦4♠4♥J♥9♦, which meant Khouzami's two queens stayed ahead the entire time. Zhugralin and Konopelko were out, and the pot was sent to Khouzami.
