WPT Prime Cambodia ($1,100)

Shai Arbel was once sitting on 900K now he has dropped significantly after a couple of losing sessions that included two showdowns. On the first bout, he calls Daniel Skoglund's 112,000 shove. Arbel is ahead with A♦ K♥ against Skoglund's A♣ 5♠ . However, the board favors Skoglund with a five on the flop that holds throughout a board 2♥ 3♥ 5♥ 6♠ J♦ . Next showdown was against Somashekhar Sanampuri whose Ace-King dominated Arbel's Ace-Jack.

Somasekhar Sanampuri raises from the hijack to 3,200, Siarhei Chudapal calls from the cutoff, and the player in the small blind moves all in for 44,000. Sanampuri calls, and Chudapal folds.

The small blind turns over 5♦ 5♣ , and needs to improve to stay alive against Sanampuri's A♠ A♣ .

The board comes 8♦ 6♦ 4♥ 8♥ Q♦ , and the small blind flops a gutshot straight draw, but improves no further. Sanampuri wins the pot with his pocket aces to eliminate his opponent.

After a preflop battle between Ziad Zebib and Somashekhar Sanampuri, they head to the flop J♠ 6♠ 8♦ with 12,600 already in the pot. Zebib continues for 3600, Sanampuri check-calls, then both step on the brakes, checking the turn and river T♥ K♦ .

Sanampuri has 7♥ 7♣ , Zebib has better A♣ K♣ to win the pot.
