    Said El-Yousfi held a commanding chip lead just a little over an hour ago, but after 3 devastating hands in which he went all in preflop with A-K (losing every time), the table had a much more democratized chip count. It was in this context that Said and Omid Shahbazian ended up in a decisive hand that changed the course of the tournament’s  late stages.

    This time, Said was all in preflop again. Only, unlike the other times, he wasn’t holding the A-K, but a King of Diamonds 4 of Clubs. Omid’s 9 of Clubs 9 of Spades ended up the winner in this hand that was dealt 6 of Diamonds 8 of Diamonds 9 of Diamonds 3 of Clubs Jack of Clubs. It was a turnaround that left Said with less than 1,000,000 chips. Several hands later he shoved again, this time against Daniel Dubeau.

    The hand started with a 375,000 raise by Daniel, only called by Said. The flop came down Ace of Diamonds 3 of Diamonds 6 of Diamonds, and both players checked. A 7 of Diamonds came on the turn, and Daniel checked. Said went all in, and after a short pause to think about it, Daniel called. All this occurred as time ran out on level 32, the 10th 60-minute level of the day.

    Said flipped over his 10 of Clubs King of Spades, and was dominated by Daniel’s 10 of Spades Ace of Hearts. The river was a King, but Daniels ace had Said beat. Said finished an excellent tournament in 5th place, taking home $62,300.

    It marks the second final table Said made in a week here at Playground Poker Club. So while he is surely disappointed in the finish considering his earlier chip lead, hopefully he will look back on this week at a later date and consider it a great success.
