El Ouardani Takes From Cohen; Branciforte Sends Out Hissou
Saif El Ouardani raised to 4,500 in the cutoff, Yosefi Cohen three-bet to 13,500 on the button, and El Ouardani called.
The flop came 10♥8♣6♠ and Cohen bet 8,000. El Ouardani then raised to 23,000, and Cohen called.
Both players checked down the 6♥ turn and 9♦ river, and El Ouardani showed A♦10♦ for two pair to win the pot.
At another table, Sirzat Hissou had moved all in for 40,000 from the button and Vito Branciforte called in the big blind.
Sirzat Hissou: A♦J♠ 
Vito Branciforte: 10♠10♥
Hissou remained behind going to the river as the board came 9♦8♣7♠5♥, but he caught the J♥ on the river and remained in his seat until the dealer pointed out that Branciforte had made a straight. Hissou let out a laugh as he made his way to the exit for the second time today.
