Mohamed Bouzgarrou Eliminates Yohai Cohen on the Bubble

Mohamed Bouzgarrou jammed for about 150,000 from under the gun before Yohai Cohen called from one seat over for about 60,000. The rest of the table folded and players waited for the other tables to finish their hands before turning over their cards.

Mohamed Bouzgarrou: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Yohai Cohen: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

"Seven!" yelled Cohen as a big crowd gathered around the table.

No seven came as the {q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} ran out on the board and Yohai Cohen was eliminated on the bubble in 80th place.

The remaining 79 players are now in the money with each player guaranteed at least a min-cash of 28,000 MAD.

Two Gone Same Hand; Almost Three

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Gaja opened to 16,000 from early position. Elvira Malay called from one seat over for her remaining stack of 10,000. RSM called from one seat next to them and Romain Follet completed the big blind with 13,000 left behind.

Follet jammed for 13,000 after the {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts} came on the flop. Gaja called before RSM jammed for about 90,000. Gaja called that bet as well and the four players turned over their cards.

Gaja: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Elvira Malay: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}
RSM: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}
Romain Follet: {6-}{4-}

Gaja had the nuts on the flop and it looked like he would take out three players at once.

The poker gods had something else in mind as the {9-Spades} came on the turn followed by the {10-Spades} on the river to give both Malay and RSM flushes. RSM's had the nut flush and eliminated both Malay and Follet while doubling his stack against Gaja.
