On the first hand after the color up break, Lena Evans moves all in for 16,000 after Said El Harrak opened under the gun to 7,500. He quickly calls and it looks like a chop with Evan’s against . She has a small sweat after El Harrak flops two diamonds but she fades the bad beat.
On the next hand she is all in once again, this time for 17,500 and El Harrak calls from the big blind to try again for the knockout. Evans has two live cards with versus and it’s her turn to flop a flush draw on the board. The turn fills the flush but Evans still has to dodge a river boat. The river is safe and she earns her double up.
Lena Evans – 39,000 (13 bb)
Said El Harrak – 60,000 (20 bb)
