Nicholas Mahabee (Miami, FL) is another player in the field that is experiencing the best tournament year of their career. Close to 80% of Mahabee's career earnings have come in this calendar year, highlighted by the Event 1 chop during the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open ($66,435). Coming back from dinner, Nicholas found himself with just over (10) big blinds, but just got back to starting stack moments ago.
Mahabee would call a 2,000 raise pre, and see a flop with four other players. Once the K♦ 3♥ 5♣ was laid out on the felt, action would check around to Mahabee on the button, who would push forward his remaining 8,800. Action folded to Dmitri Agrachov, who threw out chips for a call, with the last remaining player in the hand folding behind (David Diaz). Mahabee would turn over K♥ 5♦, having flopped top and bottom, and out flopping Agrachov's A♠ K♠. The J♣ on the turn brought a few extra outs for Agrachov, but the board paired on the river (3♣), giving Mahabee the pot and new tournament life.
Dmitri Agrachov - 115,000
Nicholas Mahabee - 32,000
