Level 20 was mostly unkind to Zo Karim. He was up around 600,000 to begin the level, but that count was more than cut in half over the span of a couple orbits. Karim regained his losses right at the tail end of the level, though.

The player in the cutoff opened with a raise, and Karim got himself all in for 298,000 in the small blind. His opponent had him slightly covered, so Karim was at risk as the cards were turned up.

Karim: AsAh
Opponent: AcQs

The board ran out 9d5h4sAdJh, and Karim doubled up with a set of aces.

Zo Karim – 615,000 (62 bb)
