Pirre-Luc Gaudreau, after an unfortunate turn of events, was left with 1,500 in chips, or half a big blind at the first level of the day. He then went on a tear, and now sits on about 85K! We will keep an eye on this one, for it might become one of those sweet chip-and-a-chair stories.
Meanwhile, Gianfranco Giordano pushed his stack forward after Sébastien Proulx got involved from the under-the-gun position. They were all-in pre-flop, and went to the board:
Gianfranco Giordano:
Sébastien Proulx:
Board:
Ouch! Proulx took out his opponent after hitting the reversed out to complete a straight!
