No Looking, No Problem for Farah
Level 10
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Elio Farah just told PokerNews that he and his neighbour had just played a 370,000 pot without looking at their cards.
Farah said that he and his neighbour, both of whom were in the blinds, agreed to move all in preflop without looking if the action folded to them.
As fate would have it, the action did fold to them, and the chips quickly found their way into the middle.
Elio Farah: Jx8x
Opponent: Jx7x
Farah was dominating his opponent from the outset, which is not something you hear very often in a blind all-in without looking.
He said an eight arrived on the runout to secure the double-up, pushing him to almost 100 big blinds.
