Rahme Beating the Bling of Sookoo

Earlier this year Joe Rahme won the South African World Series of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) event for $158,595. Here he is in action.

Rahme raises to 325 from the hijack and Jay Sookoo calls in the big blind. The flop is [Kd] [Tc] [9s] and Sookoo taps the felt with hands coated in more bling than Mr. T. Rahme also checks and the pair see the [Jc] on the turn. Sookoo checks, Rahme bets 400, Sookoo calls and we head to fifth street. The dealer pulls out the [5h] and Sookoo check-calls another 400 bet. Rahme shows [8h] [7c] for the straight and Sookoo flings his hand into the muck.

Rahme ~ 35,000
Sookoo ~ 27,000
