Emotional Ride for Ismail

It's been an emotional few minutes for Ismail Ismail. First he found himself all in holding {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} against the {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts} of chip leader Christian Heich.

Not a bad position to be in for Ismail, that is, until the community cards landed {7-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{K-Spades}{Q-Hearts} to make Heich a straight. However remarkably the {10-Diamonds} fell on the river to give Ismail a straight as well and both players chopped it up!

The two tangled again a few hands later, with Heich taking {Q-Spades}{8-Spades} into battle against Ismail's {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. This time Ismail was able to hang on as the board was spread {A-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{6-Hearts}.

Ismail doubles up to 146,000 with Heich falling back to 365,000.
