Al-Kubasi Goes For It All on the River
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Around 350,000 was in the pot as Ali Al-Kubasi and Mehmet Berk Deniz went to the river on a completed board of 8?8?J?K?2?.
Al-Kubasi, in the big blind, then pushed all in for 600,000 and Deniz tanked for a moment before sliding in a tower of chips to call.
Al-Kubasi turned over K?4? for kings and eights, then began pumping his fist when Deniz showed just Q?J? for a pair of jacks as Al-Kubasi doubled up.
Dietrich Fast was among the players recently to hit the rail.
