Two in a Row for Kortas

Level 11 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Ghattas Kortas
Ghattas Kortas

Ghattas Kortas won two pots in a row, including the elimination of Faton Berisa in the second hand.

In the first one, he was in a {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} board against Alex Foxen and he bet 27,000 in the river from the small blind. Foxen was in middle position and called after a minute in the tank. Kortas opened {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds} to take the pot with a straight, while Foxen mucked his cards.

On the very next hand, Kortas was on the button and raised only to call Faton Berisa's shove from the big blind.

Ghattas Kortas: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Faton Berisa: {k-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Hearts} to give a flush to both players, but Kortas had the higher one and eliminated his opponent.
