Judeh Takes a Small Hit; Narula Busts Le

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

The initial raise by Zhi Han Neo had already been pulled in with three callers behind and Ern Boon Chiew moved all in from the big blind for 11,525 on top. Neo and the cutoff folded, while Hassen Judeh called from the button to force out the small blind.

Ern Boon Chiew: {A-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Hassen Judeh: {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

"That's my dealer, come on," Judeh said, but the board ran out {10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} to see Chiew double up. "Oh well, it's just a small one," Judeh added and counted his stack that had recently propelled nicely.

Vijay Narula's third attempt for the day may very well turn out to be the golden one as he just got up to three times the starting stack. On a flop of {K-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}, he got it in with {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} against the {9-Spades}{6-Spades} of Thai Loc Le. The latter had a ton of outs, but the {J-Hearts} turn and {4-Clubs} river were both blanks.
