Callum Roque opens to 20,000 from UTG and Hasanain Al Ghunaim calls from UTG+1, Maxime Duhamel then moves all in for 223,000, and Philippe Steinmeier calls for less. 

Roque quickly gets out of the way but Al Ghunaim makes the call to put both players at risk.

Al Ghunaim is in a good spot to score a double knockout as his opponents hold each other’s outs, but by the turn , both players hit an ace with Steinmeier in the lead with two pair. 

Unfortunately for him, the river falls the to give Duhamel the nut flush to scoop the pot, eliminating Steinmeier.
