Senno Spikes the River to Bust One; El Yaacoubi Runs Into Criado's Kings
A player in the big blind bet 30,000 on a flop of K?7?4? and Fredrico Senno called in middle position.
The turn was the 3? and the big blind bet another 75,000. Senno then raised to 150,000 and could barely finish putting the chips in the middle before his opponent moved all in for 215,000.
Senno stood up from his seat and studied the board for a minute before calling. The big blind then showed K?7? for two pair.
"Give me a six or a five," Senno said, showing 6?6?. He got his wish as the 5? fell on the river to give him a straight, sending his opponent off to the rail.
"How come when I asked for a five they didn't give it to me," tablemate Maroun Jazzar said.
"First time I've asked for a card on the river," Senno replied.
At another table, Rachid El Yaacoubi moved all in for his last 95,000 with A?K? but Jose Luis Criado woke up with K?K? in the big blind. No ace arrived on the board and El Yaacoubi was sent to the rail.
