Karam Gets a KO

Level 9 : 200/400, 50 ante

Marc Karam is continuing to add to his chip stack. Another player raised to 1,200 preflop, Karam re-raised to 3,300 and the other player contemplated for a bit before deciding to shove all in for around 15,000. Karam snap called with the {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} and was well ahead of the other player's {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} giving Karam an unnecessary flush and the win. After the hand Karam had around 52,000.
