The Creme Rises to the Top
Nivel 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Defending champion Ahmed Karrim has been adding chips to become one of the bigger stacks in the room. On the river of a heads-up blind battle with Max Deveson, he bet 35,000 on the Q♦Q♥3♠3♦10♦ board. Deveson used one time bank extension and then called, but mucked versus Q♠9♥ for a full house.
Ryan David Anderson then chopped in the next hand with the table chip leader when both had a jack-high straight on the turn.
Fast forward one hand, Kumi Pather three-bet jammed for 56,000 and Karrim called as the initial raiser.
Kumi Pather: A♦K♥
Ahmed Karrim: A♠7♥
The J♠9♥7♠J♦Q♣ board delivered the sucker punch and Pather was gone before the money.
