Ibrahimi Doubles on Final Table Bubble

Level 34
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Ahmed Ibrahimi raised to 1,600,000 under the gun, leaving himself 525,000 behind. Mohamed Aissaoui then shoved in the cutoff for 4,000,000.
The action folded back to Ibrahimi, who made the call for his tournament life.
Ahmed Ibrahimi: A?8?
Mohamed Aissaoui: A?J?
Ibrahimi was poised to be the final table bubble when the A?3?7? flop appeared. However, the 8? turn gave him two pair and left Aissaoui with three outs.
The 5? river did not bring a jack, confirming the double-up for Ibrahimi and leaving Aissaoui with just over six big blinds.
