Kara Scott Eliminated by Jackson Genovesi

Kara Scott
Kara Scott

There was a raise to 700 and four callers before Kara Scott three-bet to 2,300 from the small blind. Both Ronnie Bardah and Jackson Genovesi decided to make the call and the dealer fanned out the {j-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Spades} flop.

Scott lead out for 5,000, Bardah raised to 18,000 and the actions passed to Genovesi who made made the call of the 18,000 raise. Scott also called meaning it was three-handed to the {7-Clubs} turn.

Scott greeted the turn by moving all-in for her last 2,725

The board pairs and Scott immediately moves all-in for 2,725.

"What is going on in this hand?" Shouts Bardah as he looked to the heavens, "you just flat 18k?" He motioned to Genovesi, "I have been in some tough spots before, but this is one of the toughest…I have put over 20,000 of my chips into this pot and I have to fold…I have outs too," said Bardah before finally folding his hand.

Genovesi then pretended to fold and the whole table burst into rptures and laughter at the reaction on Bardah's face. Genovesi pulled his cards back and called.

Scott showed {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and needed a queen or a seven to survive as Genovesi held {A-Spades}{9-Spades} for the nut flush. The {6-Diamonds} was not one of Scott's outs and she headed to the sidelines whilst Genovesi became the new chip leader.

Boujenah On The Right Side Of Set-Over-Set

The dangerous Mustapha Kanit opened the preflop betting round with a min-raise to 400 from middle position and nobody want to tangle with him. That was until the action was on Ilan Boujenah on the button who three-bet to 1,100. Both blinds folded but Kanit called.

The {q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop was initially checked by Kanit, Boujenah continued to 1,625 and Kanit called. The {2-Diamonds} on the turn completed a potential flush and Kanit possibly tried to represent it by leading out for 3,525 but Boujenah was having none of it and he quickly called.

Kanit continued his assault on the pot when the {A-Clubs} landed on the river, firing a bet of 10,650. Boujenah snap-called and was shown {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} by Kanit but the Israeli could beat him as he had flopped top set with {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
