Assi's Doubles on the First Hand
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
On the first hand of the final table, Salah Assi jammed from early position for 1,820,000 and Aren Bezhanyan called from the next seat.
Salah Assi: A♣J♥
Aren Bezhanyan: K♥K♦
Assi's final table experience looked likely to be short-lived unless he could find an ace. The flop of A♥Q♥3♦ catapulted Assi into the lead with top pair. The rest of the board came 6♣9♦ and Assi doubled through Bezhanyan.
