  • On a 6 of Hearts Jack of Clubs 8 of Clubs board, we saw Sylvain lead out with a 40K bet, and go all-in over Antoine’s raise to 140K. Antoine asked for a count, and made the call of 1.15M total holding Ace of Clubs Jack of Diamonds. Sylvain turned over Queen of Hearts 10 of Diamonds, and knew he needed some help. The turn of 10 of Spades was helpful, but it was the river Queen of Spades that gave Sylvain the double up. He now holds over 2.7M chips going into level 26.
