oooooh, that feels goooood
Word on the grapevine is that Sherkhan Farnood owns the Kabul Bank in Dubai and perhaps didn't require backers for this event.
He's obviously a very friendly banker, loaning out a chunk of chips to John Duthie and doubling up the EPT entrepreneur in the process.
With , the Duthster had Farnood's pipped pre-flop, and even more pipped on the flop.
A turn followed by a river gave Duthie the winning hand with just one pair, avoiding the King or Eight that would have straightened Farnood's hand.
