Matin Near the Top

While Ali Matin’s countryman Hossein Ensan is nowhere to be found anymore, the player from Iran has climbed up the leader board and increased his stack nicely since the dinner break.

Mohamed Mangroe raised to 400 and was called by five four players including Matin and Abdelhakim Zoufri. On the flop, Mangroe bet 1,000 and Matin raised to 4,000, which only the cutoff called.

The turn went check, check, and Matin’s bet of 6,000 on the river resulted in a call. Matin showed for a full house and raked in the pot.

Ali Matin – 80,000
