Li Sends Mahmoud To the Rail
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
All the chips went in the middle between Pei Li and Khaled Mahmoud, at risk for a remaining stack worth 240,000 with a flop reading J♦2♦6♣:
Khaled Mahmoud: A♦10♦8♠6♠
Pei Li: A♣Q♣Q♦7♦
Li was ahead with the queens but Mahmoud had plenty of outs to double up, and hit a 8♣ on the turn to give him two pair. However, a J♥ hit the river to give a better two pair to Li and send Mahmoud out.
