Youness Barakat

Pot-Limit Omaha

Youness Barakat potted to 8,500 in early position and was called by Chenxiang Miao in the hijack and Joao Simao in the big blind to create a pot of 29,000.

On the J♠7♦5♥ flop, Simao led all-in for 28,000, Barakat potted to 113,000, Miao was all-in for 127,000, and Barakat called.

Joao Simao: K♠J♥8♥7♥ All in
Chenxiang Miao: A♥Q♠8♣6♥ All in
Youness Barakat: A♠K♦10♦7♣

Simao flopped top two pair, Miao had an open-ender, and Barakat paired his seven with overcards.

The A♣ landed on the turn to put Barakat into the lead, and the 10♠ river confirmed that he held the winner, with aces and tens being good enough to knock out two opponents.
