Mhiri "Still Alive" After Losing Race, Busts A Couple of Hands Later
Nível 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Chakib Mhiri was all in preflop from the hijack and Luis Celso was all in on the button. Mhiri had slightly more chips and so Celso was at risk. The hands were flipped.
Luis Celso: 
Chakib Mhiri: 
Celso hit to get ahead and held up to the river to gain a double. Mhiri thought he was busted, but it turns out he still has 35,000 chips to play with, which is now less than one big blind.
"Ahh, still alive!", he said.
But a couple of hands later he was forced to go all in, pushing across his last 35,000 from under the gun. He was called by two players and Alexandru Papazian held up with king high. Mhiri was eliminated and wished the other players "good luck" as he took his leave.
Play broke down to four tables.
