It was a very nice ![]()
![]()
flop for Sami Banizuraij and an even nicer
turn. Holding ![]()
![]()
![]()
in his hands, it was a dream situation to get it all-in with the nuts.
It was all over for his opponent by that point, rendering the
river redundant and Banizuraij has more than tripled up from where he started the day.
