Hassan Hakim

Anthony Pellegrini was eliminated on the first hand after dinner and that was followed by another big hand over on Table 22. Hassan Hakim and Aiping Jiang tangled in a huge pot that was a flip for a lot of chips with Hakim all in for 755,000.

Hakim: 8h8c
Jiang: AsKs

Hakim needed to fade the suited over cards, the QcQdJs flop was safe but gave Jiang a lot of out. He added a spade draw on the 2s turn but Hakim doubled big after the 6d river.

Jiang was knocked down to less than 10 big blinds and gone soon after.

Hassan Hakim – 1,550,000 (103 bb)
