Sousa Doubles Through Ouakhir

[user38449]

Mehdi Ouakhir made it 100,000 to go from the button, prompting Michael Schulze to fold his small blind. The action then fell to Ricardo "Rico Suave" Sousa who moved all in from the big blind -- a total bet worth 521,000. Mehdi asked for a count and then went into the tank for a moment before saying, "OK . . . I make a sick call," as he slid the required chips into the middle.

Neither player was overly happy about their hand as tournament emcee Lee Jones had to prompt them to flip their cards over:

Mehdi: {Q-Hearts}

Sousa:

The board filled out {K-Diamonds}

in favor of the self-proclaimed "luckiest guy on the EPT," who stood up out of his chair after the river and had all kinds of things to say: "I never lose, man! That was a bad call...you know you're gonna lose!"

Ricardo surged past the one million mark in chips, while Mehdi dropped to approximately 250,000.
