Rahim Survives in Biggest Pot of the Night
Ziya Rahim: /
Eric Kurtzman: /
David Funkhouser: /
Daniel Zack: / - folded bring-in
Eric Kurtzman raised Daniel Zack's bring-in and was called by both Ziya Rahim and David Funkhouser. Zack folded and stayed out of the way of what was to come.
On fourth street, Funkhouser had the betting lead but checked. Kurtzman then bet and from his short stack, Rahim raised. Funkhouser paused, then made it three bets to go. With action back to Kurtzman, he made it four bets, and Rahim tossed in the rest of his chips for 345,000 total, which was called by both potential executioners.
Funkhouser then checked a bet on sixth to start a side pot, and both players then checked seventh.
Kurtzman showed kings in the hole which earned him the small side pot, but Rahim showed two pair, aces and sevens for the main pot, and Funkhouser mucked his hand.
The massive pot more than tripled up Rahim and put him back into contention.
