On table 38 just now we witnessed a battle of the short stacks.

As we approached, Behrooz Salemi was already all in with 8 of Diamonds Queen of Clubs Queen of Diamonds showing on the board. It wasn’t a large bet, but most players got out of the way, and it was called by only Alberto Melendez. They flipped over their cards.

Alberto: King of Spades 8 of Spades

Behrooz: Ace of Diamonds 3 of Diamonds

Alberto was showing top pair and Behrooz was chasing the flush. The turn/river was a 10 of Clubs 7 of Hearts, no help for Behrooz, and he doubled up his short-stacked opponent.

The next hand, Behrooz (with almost nothing left) was forced to shove again, this time for 7,800 chips. His hand wasn’t terrible (Queen of Spades 8 of Spades), but he ran into the Ace of Hearts King of Hearts of Shailesh Patel.

The board was dealt Jack of Clubs 3 of Diamonds 4 of Spades Ace of Diamonds 10 of Clubs, and Behrooz took his leave.
