Chiha Three-Bet Shoves into the Nuts
Marek Tomes made it 1,600 from middle position before Nourddine Chiha three-bet the cutoff to 4,800. Tomes called to see a flop.
Tomes check-called a bet of 7,500 by Chiha on the K♣9♠3♥ flop.
A J♣ landed on the turn, causing Tomes to check again. Chiha fired a second barrel of 12,500 and was met by a check-raise to 31,500 from Tomes. Chiha paused for a few moments, then three-bet jammed for about 125,000. Tomes snap-called with the covering stack.
Nourddine Chiha: A♣Q♥ 
Marek Tomes: Q♣10♦
Tomes held the nuts with a king-high straight and Chiha had made a move with ace-high. Chiha still could win the pot by hitting a ten on the river to improve to a higher straight.
It wasn't to be for Chiha as the 5♠ completed the board, and all of Chiha's stack was sent over to Tomes.
