Karoui Battles With Hissou

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Moncef Karoui in an early position and Sirzat Hissou tangled once more as a three-bet pot led to the {8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop on which Karoui bet and Hissou called. The {5-Diamonds} turn brought a pot-sized bet of Karoui for 765,000 and Hissou reluctantly folded, he was shown the {j-Hearts}{10-Spades} before Karoui added that he had a set of fours.

Sirzat Hissou: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Karoui had nothing but backdoor draws against Hissou's two pair. The turn {2-Diamonds} and river {q-Hearts} changed nothing and Hissou doubled to over a million chips.

No-Limit Hold'em

Denys Fedorenko and Carter Newhof invested 110,000 in a battle of the blinds and the flop fell {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, on which Fedorenko check-called for 110,000. The {9-Diamonds} turn then brought the last 385,000 of Fedorenko in the middle and he immediately sighed when Newhof tabled his cards.

Denys Fedorenko: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Carter Newhof: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The {4-Hearts} on the river brought no miracle and Fedorenko departed the tournament area with a "good luck guys."

Newhof was asked "he just called preflop?" and Newhof nodded, then replied "it's going in no matter what."
