Fatehi Out
Ali Reza Fatehi has not had a very good afternoon so far and it just got a whole lot worse. A recently arrived Fedor Holz opened the action in this particular hand with a raise to 4,000.
If Holz’ current tournament form is anything to go by he usually doubles in the first five minutes but this is not the case here – for a change.
Dan Smith mulls things over on the button before electing to re-raise to 12,500 in total and Fatehi, sitting in the small blind, moves the last of his chips in for an all-in bet of 34,200 in total.
Holz snap folded, to a groan and a cry of ‘nooooooo!’ from Smith who slaps 
face up on the table. Fathei tables 
and is in need of some help, which fails to arrive when the board runs out 
.
Amusingly, this brings a cry of ‘nooooooooo!’ from Holz, who told Smith he just folded 
.
“There’s no way you call if I shove though, right?” quizzes Smith jokingly as he stacks up his newly won chips.
For Fatehi that brings his tournament to a close as that was already his second bullet and the Iranian retires to lick his wounds.
