Khalghamooz, Klatt, Sirbu and Ghazal

After already substantial preflop action between Saeid Khalghamooz, Bogdan Sirbu, and Elie Ghazal, there was 16,000 in the middle when the dealer dealt a {10-Spades}{3-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop.

Khalghamooz was first to act and bet 9,000, which Sirbu called. Ghazal, on the button, slid 55,000 forward, more than enough to cover both opponents. Khalghamooz tanked two minutes before folding his hand reluctantly.

Sirbu needed minutes as well to come to a decision and got the clock called on him. Eventually, he open-folded {Q-}{Q-}. Ghazal complimented him on the fold and showed {A-}{A-}, while Khalghamooz reached for the muck to show his {J-}{J-}.
