Habib Takes Another Hit

Not long after losing a pot to Steve Verret, Hasan Habib saw his chip stack shrink even more. This time, Habib was involved in a hand with the big blind, who check-raised Habib all in for 95,900 on a flop of {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts}.

Habib made the call and showed {Q-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for top pair while his opponent held {7-Spades}{5-Diamonds} for bottom two, which held up when the turn and river brought the {6-Diamonds} and {2-Diamonds}.

Habib is now down to 60,000.
