Grafton Eliminated by Mohamed
Sam Grafton started the action with a preflop raise from under the gun and the action ultimately led to him getting the chips in and Ahamed Mohamed doing so as well on the button. Both had near identical stack sizes and it was Mohamed at risk but holding the superior hand heading into the showdown.

Sam Grafton: 
Once the 
flop appeared, Mohamed vaulted out of his seat and already started grabbing his belongings. One of the oldest tricks in the history of live poker did its magic once more as the 
turn restored the preflop order. Nothing changed anymore with the 
river and Mohamed doubled for 197,000.
Grafton was down to 10,000 and forced all-in from the big blind next. Mohamed raised to 14,000 and forced out all other players.

There was a faint glimpse of comeback until the 
turn but the 
river spelled the end for the PokerStars ambassador.
