Balic Falls to Mokhtari
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Just after play resumed, Jakov Balic had his short stack of around 25,000 in the middle and was at risk against Tommy Mokhtari.
Jakov Balic: 8♣5♣ 
Tommy Mokhtari: K♦J♦
Balic was live, but needed a lot of help after the 9♠10♣K♠ flop gave Mokhtari a pair and a straight draw. A J♥ turn left Mokhtari drawing to a seven to scoop and a queen to chop, but it was no dice as the 8♦ fell on the river.
