Good Call for Mbarek

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

The flop showed {4-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} and already 22,000 were in the middle when El Mehdi Mbarek was facing an all-in bet for 38,000 from Janneh Hatib.

"I have to call," said Mbarek before moving a chip for the call, and tabled {10-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for top pair. "Good call" said Hatib, holding {5-Clubs}{9-Spades}.

The turn {8-Spades} and river {a-Spades} brought no help to Hatib, who busted on the very last hand before the dinner break.
