Team Hauptman Eliminated in 18th Place ($6,454)

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Michael Hauptman
Michael Hauptman

Hicham Mahmouki of Team Boujmala had action on him, and open-shoved from the button, covering both blinds by quite some way. David Hong of Team Hauptman made the call.

David Hong: A5 All in
Hicham Mahmouki: 1010

It was the second time in quick succession that Hong had been all in with ace-five, the second time his teammate Michael Hauptman had called for an ace, and the second time that they had hit top pair, as the 7QA flop put them in good stead to stay alive. The K turn was the sweatiest card in the deck, as Mahmouki picked up a Royal Flush draw. He wouldn't hit it, but the J for a straight was enough as he and teammate Samy Boujmala celebrated together.
