Ben Cherif Chomps on Vegimite Sandwich

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Australian Nino Marotta opened the cutoff to 19,000 and Rachid Ben Cherif called from the big blind to see a {Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop fall.

Ben Cherif checked and Marotta moved all in for his last 106,000. Ben Cherif looked a little puzzled by Marotta's move, but then made the call to put him at risk.

Marotta: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Ben Cherif: {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The turn and river landed the {6-Clubs} and {5-Hearts} to see Ben Cherif make a straight to send the Aussie to the rail as he moved to roughly 840,000 in chips.
