Fuad's Had It

Fuad Serhan raised to 5.7k and then flat-called a reraise to 19k from Martin Green in the big blind, leaving himself 32k behind. Come the flop, Serhan checked it and Green moved resolutely all in. Serhan thought about it, but passed, leaving himself verging on the short.

A few hands later, he found himself on the big blind. Tim Flanders merely limped from the button and Long Zhang made up the small blind so Serhan pushed all in. Flanders insta-folded, but Zhang stood up, thought about it, and called.

Now that's a BIG pot, but this is a...

MEGA-POT!

Surinder Sunar, Talal Shakerchi and Richard Ashby went 3 way to a flop of .

Surinder moved in for his last 30k...

Talal now went into the tank considering his options. Regard his studious face.



...before he too called.

Richard Ashby meanwhile, watching on closely...now moved all-in over the top for another 55k or so!



Talal called with Q-Q, only to find Richard had him dominated with A-A...oops!



"FFS RUN SO BAD!"

So with those two playing out a large 110k sidepot, back to Surinder who was playing out the 100k main pot with the others, and he showed K-Q for the open ender.

He was in pretty bad shape as an Ace was no good, so he needed to hit a 9 to stay in the competition whilst Talal was drawing even thinner as only a solitary Queen or running 9-8 could save his bacon.

The turn was...the !

Amazingly Surinder had hit to take the lead and when the river blanked his advantage remained, boosting his stock to 100k+!



Ship The Sherbert!
Meanwhile Richard was left with 110k after winning the large side-pot and a dejected Talal was ejected from the tournament.

SHIIICKKKK!

Carter the Stoppable Poker Machine


Dan Carter apparently shoved in blind on the sb when it passed to him, and David McConnon in the bb made the call with A-Q.  When Dan checked his hand he found KK(!) which was promptly outdrawn by a spiked Ace and he's now disappeared.
