Nouira Makes the Correct Call for His Stack
Level 18
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
When it folded to Phil Ivey in the small blind, he shoved, putting Maher Nouira to the test in the big blind for his entire stack of 2,400,000. Nouira instantly called.
Maher Nouira: K♣9♣
Phil Ivey: 4♣3♣
Nouira's king-high stayed ahead against the suited connector of Ivey on the 7♠A♠K♠2♦4♦ board, and he earned the much-needed double-up.
