Fouad Toujani
Fouad Toujani

Osman Ihlamur opened from the hijack and found a call from Fouad Toujani in the big blind.

The A?A?K? flop saw Toujani check-call a bet of 100,000 from Ihlamur and the dealer revealed the A? turn. Both players checked through to the 10? river, where Toujani led out for 500,000.

Ihlamur took some time before putting in the call, and Toujani turned over A?5? for quad aces. Ihlamur frustratingly mucked his cards, as Toujani took down the pot.
