Hassan Barakat Eliminated In 8th Place ($47,500)
Level 25
: 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
All in with his single 5,000 chip left, Hassan Barakat was a mere spectator when Denis Kapustin raised from the button to 160,000. Milos Petakovic called from the big blind, and a J?3?6? flop appeared on the felt.
On this first street, Kapustin bet 100,000, and was once again called. He raised his bet to 225,000 on the turn 4?. But this time, Petakovic folded his A?9?.
Hassan Barakat: K?6?
Denis Kapustin: J?7?
Kapustin was in the lead with his pair of jacks. And he maintained his lead after the river 5?, which gave him a straight. Finishing 8th, Barakat won $47,500.
