A Set of Ladies Help Hanna to Bust Mahmoud
Level 2
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Yassin Mahmoud and Georges Hanna just got involved in a pot of almost 200,000 with Mahmoud being the player at risk of elimination.
Yassin Mahmoud: A♠K♣ 
Georges Hanna: Q♣Q♠
It was a race for two starting stacks that both players wanted to win. The flop of 7♣Q♦A♦ may have given Mahmoud top pair, but Hanna improved to a set of queens to take a commanding lead. The 4♠ turn left Mahmoud drawing dead, as the 6♥ came on the river to cement his elimination.
Mahmoud instantly rebought and took his seat with a fresh starting stack at another table.
