Isle Open Event 1 (Flight 1C): "Fear The Beard," Sukhu Crosses Century Mark

2017 Isle Open | Event #1
$175 No Limit Hold'em | $100,000 GTD
Level 10 (Blinds 500/1,000/100)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 107
Flight 1C Players Remaining: 45

Hari Sukhu (Miramar, FL) rocks what has to be the best facial hair in the Flight 1C field...and likely the entire poker room.

After calling a 2,100 open, and then flatting an 11,000 three-bet, Hari Sukhu (Miramar, FL) would go to a flop against two opponents (with one all-in for 9,100).  The dealer placed down a starting board of A J♠ 4♠, and Hari followed by announcing himself all-in, which would be enough to cover his only active opponent.  Though pained by the decision, his adversary would slam his chips down on the felt for a call, immediately turning over K♣ K.  Sukhu then calmly tabled A♠ K♠, having grabbed a huge lead with a pair of aces and a flush draw (the player who was all-in pre held Q♣ 8).  

Hari ended up improving to a flush on the river, but his pair of aces were good enough for the win, and the pot worth close to 60,000.  That sizable win would bring Sukhu above the 100,000 mark, and puts him in the top five of the remaining chip counts.

Hari Sukhu - 111,000
