Alawadhi Eliminates Hamdi to Take Chip Lead
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
As recounted by her former tablemates, Linda Hamdi was heads up against Ali Alawadhi on a board reading Qx5x4x and bet 100,000. Alawadhi made the call.
The turn was a 6x and Hamdi bet 200,000. Alawadhi moved all in with a covering stack and Hamdi made the call.
Hamdi had AxAx but ran into Alawadhi's 5x5x for a set of fives and failed to improve. Hamdi was sent to the rail while Alawadhi surged past three million chips to take the chip lead.
