Sami Bechahed Eliminated in 6th Place ($18,375)

By April 6, 2025No Comments

Blinds: 40,000/80,000

Sami Bechahed had just gotten a fortunate chop on the hand before when his Ace-Six chopped with the Ace-Queen of Robert Gill when two pair came on the board, and on the next hand, he moved all in again for 460,000. Nissar Quraishi was in the big blind, and he thought for a bit before calling with [Kh][2h].

Bechahed showed [Ks][6s], and what looked likely to be a chop again changed after the flop came [8h][5c][4s] to strengthen Bechahed’s lead. The [9h] turn gave Quraishi flush draw outs, but he wouldn’t need them, as the [2c] came on the river. Bechahed wished the table luck as he hit the payout desk, leaving us five handed, with Sohale Khalili holding a nice lead on the field.
