Sam Khouiss Eliminated in 53rd Place (AU$15,000)

Sam Khouiss - 53rd place
Sam Khouiss - 53rd place
Sam Khouiss has been eliminated after the cruelest of river cards.

Zach Gruneberg opened preflop to 9,000 with Sam Capra and Sam Khouiss both making the call. The flop came {5-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and Khouiss checked to Gruneberg, who bet 16,000. Capra flat-called, and Khouiss proceeded to check-raise all in for 110,000. Gruneberg made the call and Capra went into the tank before folding.

Khouiss would be in good shape tabling {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for middle set, again Gruneberg's {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} overpair, with a gutshot straight draw. The {q-Diamonds} was fine for Khouiss on the turn, but the river had him heading for the rail when it brought the {9-Spades} to make Gruneberg a set. Capra commented that he had folded {8-?} {8-?}.

Gruneberg moves up to 445,000.
