El Ghassan Cracks Skarparis' Aces
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of J?10?9?, Elie El Ghassan bet 90,000 from middle position before Georgios Skarparis moved all in for 320,000 in early position. El Ghassan called to put him at risk.
Georgios Skarparis: A?A? 
Elie El Ghassan: 8?7?
Skarparis turned over a pair of aces, but El Ghassan had a flopped straight for the lead. The K? turn gave Skarparis some outs to his own straight, but he missed the J? river as El Ghassan took the pot to send the new WSOP bracelet winner to the rail.
