The Bank Of Farnood

oooooh, that feels goooood
oooooh, that feels goooood
Word on the grapevine is that Sherkhan Farnood owns the Kabul Bank in Dubai and perhaps didn't require backers for this event.

He's obviously a very friendly banker, loaning out a chunk of chips to John Duthie and doubling up the EPT entrepreneur in the process.

With {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, the Duthster had Farnood's {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{A-Spades}{2-Clubs} pipped pre-flop, and even more pipped on the {6-Spades}{9-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} flop.

A {7-Hearts} turn followed by a {9-Diamonds} river gave Duthie the winning hand with just one pair, avoiding the King or Eight that would have straightened Farnood's hand.
