Level 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The player in the cutoff opened to 5,100 and was called by Cortez Baker in the small blind. Yaser Al-Keliddar then shoved for his last 21,800 from the big blind and only the initial raiser called to put Al-Keliddar at risk.

Yaser Al-Keliddar:
Cutoff:

It was close to a coin flip, but the flop left Al-Keliddar's opponent needing some kind of runner-runner.

The turn and river kept Al-Keliddar in front with his flush and he doubled up.
