Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
[Removed:476] was slowly building his stack when he played a monster hand, one hour ago.
He raised with 
and was call by a morrocan player in position, Mohamed A.. Zahir chose to check-call on a 
flop but he check-raised all-in for almost 140,000 chips on the 
turn. Bad timing for Zahir as Mohamed turbo-called with 
for a little less chips.
A river 
created a monster chipleader as Zahir have close to 300,000 chips and the end of the Day 1B is looming.

5 minutes of nightmare and a bustout in two hands for Alexandre Le Vaillant, who won his first WSOP Circuit ring in April for €30,440... that was not his plan for the week-end.
First Alexandre put his opponent all-in by open shoving in small blind with 
. The Big Blind called with 
and hit the last 
of the deck river after a 
flop !
Down to 13,000 chips, Alexandre 3-bet shoved 2 minutes later in late position... the initial raiser called with 
and eliminated him after a 
board...
