button in SafariLadies Hold for Yazid
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The hand began with an open to 7,000 from early position. Rifki Yazid made it 23,000 on the button before the big blind went all-in for their final 7,000. The early position raiser folded as Yazid went to a showdown with the big blind at risk.
Opponent: A♣Q♦
Rifki Yazid: Q♥Q♠
Yazid was well in front and needed to fade the ace to score the knockout, as his opponent aimed to crack Yazid's pocket queens to stay alive in the tournament.
The 2♦4♥5♣ flop did not yield an ace, but it did give the big blind a wheel draw to go with his overcard.
The 8♦ turn was of no consequence, and the 5♥ river sealed the deal in favor of Yazid, who scored the elimination.
