Daher Boated Off The Island

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Maher Nouira
Maher Nouira

Albert Daher opened to 16,000 from middle position only to see Maher Nouira three-bet to 42,000 one seat over. Action folded back around to Daher who made the call to see a flop.

Daher checked to Nouira on the {j-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} flop and the three-bettor continued for 16,000. After some thought, Daher decided to respond with a raise to 35,000. Nouira just called to keep action heads-up to the turn.

The {8-Spades} turn saw Daher once again take some time before announcing he was all in. Nouira could barely get the chips in fast enough with the covering stack to put Daher at risk.

Albert Daher: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Maher Nouira: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Daher had run straight into Nouira's flopped boat and was drawing dead prior to the meaningless {7-Hearts} river to send him crashing out of the tournament well short of the money. Nouira, meanwhile, has vaulted to the upper echelons of the leaderboard courtesy of his ladies.
