Abe Aboukhalil Eliminated by Sunny Patel on a Bad Beat

Sep 21, 2016

Abe Aboukhalil raises UTG+1 to 12,500, Sunny Patel reraises from the hijack to 32,000, and Aboukhalil calls. The flop comes Club 10Heart 4Club 2, Aboukhalil checks, Patel bets 35,000, and Aboukhalil check-raises to 70,000. Patel calls.

The turn card pairs the board with the Spade 10, and Aboukhalil moves all in for 149,500. Patel calls with a slightly larger stack and shows Spade KHeart K. But Aboukhalil turns over Heart AHeart 10 for trip tens, needing it hold to stay alive.

The river card is — the Diamond K.

The entire table reacts loudly to the bad beat as Patel rivers a full house, kings full of tens, to win the pot and eliminate Aboukhalil from the tournament.

Sunny Patel  –  595,000  (119 bb)
Abe Aboukhalil  –  Eliminated
