Ehsan Amiri Eliminated in 7th Place ($108,000)
Ehsan Amiri's deep and hugely entertaining run in the $15k NLH 8-Handed has come to an end at the hands of Daniel Rezaei.
The Aussie was down to just a few blinds when he raised to 1,300,000, prompting a shove from Rezaei in the big blind and Amiri making the call for his tournament life.
Ehsan Amiri: K♠Q♠
Daniel Rezaei: A♥J♥
The duo was laughing and joking around as the dealer fanned the J♠5♣8♥ flop, putting Rezaei well-ahead, and when the 9♥ turn hit, Amiri hilariously tried every trick in the book, rapping the table, grabbing his bag and offering congratulations to Rezaei.
The good-humored dark arts wouldn't work on this occasion, however, as the 5♥ completed the board and sent Amiri to collect his payout.
