Photo: Amir Khaziri (left) is all in preflop on the TV bubble against Moon Kim (standing, right).
Hand #100 – Moon Kim raises to 55,000 from under the gun and Ubaid Habib calls from middle position. Amir Khaziri is in the small blind and announces he is all-in for 457,000 total. Kim calls and Habib folds pocket deuces face up.
Kim holds [9c9d] and Khaziri is racing with [AdKd].
The [10h8s4s] flop keeps Kim out front and the [6d] on the turn does nothing to change that. The river is the [6s] and the nines hold to eliminate Khaziri in seventh place on the final table bubble.
Moon Kim – 2,098,000 (105 BBs)
Amir Khaziri – eliminated in sixth place ($64,000)
