Maroun Akiki

The tournament was on hold for the three-table redraw while Maroun Akiki played a monter pot against Sebastian Momtazi at Table 2.

The board was dealt through the turn and it laid Td5s4d8h. Momtazi and Akiki were close in stacks, but Momtazi had the edge with 652,000 to Akiki’s roughly 635,000. They got it in and the hands were put face up.

Akiki: QcQh for an overpair
Momtazi: AsTc for top top

Akiki’s overpair was best, but the river Ah changed that. The table erupted as Momtazi improved to two pair, busted Akiki 27th and raked what was the largest pot of the tournament.

With Akiki’s elimination, the event is down to 26 players and the three-table redraw is underway.

Sebastian Momtazi – 2,175,000
Maroun Akiki – Eliminated in 27th place ($3,641)
