Kaddouri Finds an Ace to Double Off Khabbazeh
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Mounim Kaddouri moved all in for 175,000 in early position and Basel Khabbazeh called in the cutoff.
Mounim Kaddouri: A?K? 
Basel Khabbazeh: K?K?
Khabbazeh had woken up with kings to leave Kaddouri at risk of elimination, but the flop brought A?J?8? to give Kaddouri the lead with a pair of aces. Khabbazeh was left looking for just one out, but Kaddouri held up through the 10? turn and 8? river to earn the double up.
