    Hand-for-hand play lasted about 30 minutes, and saw some crazy action. Garrett Dansereau and Jean-François M. played a pot that created a new chip leader.

    When we got to the table, the turn was out, Garrett had put out a 1.3M bet, and Jean-François raised to 5.5M. Garrett bumped it to 10M, and a call ensued. With over 20M in the pot, Jean-François checked the river, and when Garrett pushed 2.9M forward, he went to the tank.

    The bet was very small, and with a huge crowd around the table, Jean-François made the call. Garrett instantly mucked his hole cards, and Jean-François opened:

    Jean-François: Ace of Diamonds 5 of Hearts

    Board: 2 of Diamonds 3 of Hearts 9 of Diamonds 8 of Clubs 6 of Clubs

    Ace high! Jean-François now sits on almost 40 million in chips.

    Meanwhile, Alexandre Lajoie was all-in and patiently waiting for that hand to finish. He had open shoved with 3,175,000 chips and got called by David Tazbaz. When one of the floors gave their dealer the ok, he tabled the cards and revealed the run out:

    Lajoie: Ace of Clubs Queen of Hearts
    Tazbaz: Jack of Spades Jack of Hearts

    Board: Jack of Clubs King of Clubs King of Spades 10 of Diamonds 9 of Hearts

    The turn brought Lajoie a straight, but also Tazbaz the check mark. Lajoie is our Open bubble boy, and a plethora of bust outs ensued.

    Congratulations to everyone in the money!

    Alexandre Lajoie
    David Tazbaz
