Khadra Removes Two

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Hadi Khadra
Hadi Khadra

Hadi Khadra found himself in a position to eliminate two opponents after getting all the chips in preflop against Sardor Shagulyamov, who had approximately 116,000, and Luciano Piaggesi, who was down to around 11,000. Both players were all in and at risk, while Khadra had them comfortably covered.

Luciano Piaggesi: 10♣8♥ All in
Sardor Shagulyamov: A♠K♥ All in
Hadi Khadra: A♥J♦

Khadra called for a jack, and found two on the J♣J♠7♦ flop, taking a commanding lead.

The Q♣ turn gave both at-risk players hope, but the 5♥ river was a brick, and Khadra sent two to the rail.
