Entries: 115/1,992
We learned that Khalil Ameed doubled up with a straight to soar past 2 million in chips. Shortly after, he gave a few back.
Samuel Marseiler got his last 120,000 into the pot and was up against Ameed.
Samuel Marseiler: A♠2♥
Khalil Ameed: K♥T♦
Marseiller improved to two pair on the 2♣A♥9♦ flop but Ameed was still alive and asked for a queen on the J♥ turn.
The T♥ river paired up Ameed. But this wasn’t enough and Marseiller was able to take a small chunk of La Fata’s massive stack.
Samuel Marseiler – 250,000
Khalil Ameed – 1,950,000
