Nashar Plays Like Messi
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 0 ante
Very active and talkative, Hassan Nashar opened to 3,000 from the cutoff and was called by Burim Mahmudi in the small blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 7♦K♠2♠. "No king?", Nashar asked before betting 6,000. Mahmudi check-called.
Nashar fired a second barrel of 8,000 on the Q♥ turn, but Mahmudi check-raised all-in. Nashar snap-called, finding himself at risk for 21,700.
Hassan Nashar: K♦6♥ 
Burim Mahmudi: A♦Q♦
"Ace-Queen not good, I'm a professionnal like Messi with the ball," Nashar said when he discovered Mahmudi's hand. He doubled up after the J♠ river and eliminated Mahmudi a few hands later.
