The Wheel of Ojeil

On the fourth hand of final-table action, Nicolas Zakhem opened with a raise to 110,000 from the hijack seat. Next door, Chadi Ojeil made the call, heads up to the flop.

It came out {3-Spades} {10-Spades} {2-Hearts}, and both players checked. The {4-Hearts} on the turn drew a bet of 120,000 from Zakhem, and Ojeil mulled it over before making the call. The river card came the {5-Spades}, and Zakhem elected to check it again. Ojeil checked behind, turning over {A-Spades} {K-Hearts} for the wheel. Zakhem was visibly frustrated as he flashed his {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts} and sent them whirling into the muck.

Zakhem - 890,000
Ojeil - 910,000
