Kamel and Pickett Advance

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Tamer Kamel has recently defeated his opponent during heads up play to advance. On the final hand, the board read {2-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. Kamel's opponent led for 1,000 only to have Kamel click it right back to 2,000. His opponent three-bet shoved all in for 6,100 total and Kamel quickly called.

Kamel: {J-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Opponent: {8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}

Kamel led with his turned pair of jacks and sealed the victory after the {7-Clubs} hit the river. He advanced to Day 2 and bagged up 80,500.

Soon after, Michael Pickett defeated Will Failla in heads up play to advanced. Pickett will bring 88,900 into play tomorrow.
