Henry B. opened the pot with a raise to 26,000 under the gun, and the action passed around to late position. In the one seat, Charbel Moubarek moved all in for just over 100,000 and Henry instantly called. The only problem was that big blind Sassine Ghazale had yet to act. In fact, he appeared to be considering a call of his own for several minutes before finally releasing his hand. Henry called again, and Moubarek was at risk for his tournament life.

Showdown
Henry B.: {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}
Moubarek: {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}

The board ran out unkind to the all-in player, coming {8-Spades} {9-Spades} {8-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {K-Spades}. With his kings up, Henry B. adds to his stack, sending Charbel Moubarek to the rail in 30th place.
