Hassaaaaaaan!

Level 26 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Under the gun, Thomas Miller raised from under the gun. It's the second consecutive pot he's opened, and he found calls from both Matthew Berkey and Mikhail Lakhitov. Action came to Hassan Babajane in the cutoff seat, and he squeezed all in for 300,000 on the nose. That folded Miller without incident, but both Berkey and Lakhitov called to try and team up for the knockout.

The board ran {J-Clubs} {A-Hearts} {4-Spades} {7-Spades} {3-Diamonds}, and the two live players checked it down. Berkey showed {2-Diamonds} {2-Spades}, and Lakhitov could beat that with his {10-Hearts} {J-Hearts}. Babajane had them both topped, though, turning up {A-Spades} {8-Spades} to scoop the triple-up and then some. He's all the way back up to 1.055 million now.
