Cards are in the air for the final table of the 2017 WSOP International Circuit Main Event.
Niveau: 26
Blinds: 20,000/40,000
Ante: 5,000
The grey-colored T-100,000 chips are now in play.
The final table is being held in a special part of the luxurious Es Saadi resort. It's a fantastic atmosphere to play in, and all the players appear to want to settle first before getting involved in any big hands.
Ricardo Manquant shoved his stack of 240,000, just six big blinds, in the middle and Julio Sanchez called. Behind Sanchez, Arron Fletcher three-bet to 850,000 and Sanchez instantly let it go.

Manquant had decent equity to score the triple-up, but it wasn't meant to be. After a board, the winner of the inaugural WSOP Circuit Main Event in Marrakech two years ago saw his bid at a second ring come to an end.
Receiving a thundrous ovation from the rail, the Frenchman headed to the payout desk to collect his winnings of 153,000 MAD (€14,290).

Short-stack ninja Matthias Widmann, who laddered himself up quite nicely today, shoved all in with his last 195,000. Behind him, Fernandez made the call and the other players folded.

Mohamed El Bakkouri opened with a raise on the button. Julio Sanchez folded his small blind, but Arron Fletcher in the big blind had a different plan. He slid a tower of T-100,000 chips forward, enough to cover El Bakkouri. The Frenchman snap-called the remainder of his stack off.
