Khorsandi Busts

Niveau 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

After taking a massive dent to their stack in the previous hand, Mojtaba Khorsandi moved all in from middle position for 600,000.

James Clarke on the button weighed up all the possible decisions and opted to make the call.

Mojtaba Khorsandi: A♠5♥
James Clarke: K♠J♠

The flop of 3♣2♣2♠ was more helpful to Khorsandi, but the K♣ turn gave Clarke the lead. The 7♦ was a brick that sent Khorsandi to the exit and Clarke is amassing a stack to challenge for the bracelet.

Thompson Puts Khorsandi in the Danger Zone

Niveau 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

All the chips went into the middle preflop with under-the-gun David Thompson all in for 885,000 was at risk against Mojtaba Khorsandi in the hijack.

David Thompson: A♠A♥
Mojtaba Khorsandi: K♦K♣

The ultimate cooler as Khorsandi's kings ran into Thompson's aces. The low board of 6♥6♣3♠2♠7♠ was no use for Khorsandi leaving them super short and Thompson took in the massive pot.
