    Kevin Rouselle was playing one of the shorter stacks at the final table, but thanks to some aggression and a fortunate river card, Rouselle has brought his stack back to average.

    Rouselle managed to steal a few rounds of blinds by open shoving his short stack and the third time proved to be the charm. Rouselle opened raised all in, and Jean-Rene Guay made the flat for roughly two thirds of his stack. These actions chased everyone else out of the way, and hands were tabled. It was Queen of Hearts Jack of Hearts for Rouselle and Ace of Spades King of Spades for Guay. The low board was looking good for Guay, but the Queen of Diamonds on the river gave Rouselle a much-needed double up.

    Sebastien Drolet-Poitras has played a number of pots at the final table and until the most recent they were not going his way. But an aggressive three-bet shove from the big blind just got him a huge double up through chip leader Steve Horic. Horic had raised his button to 165K, and Drolet-Poitras came over the top, moving all in for roughly 1.2 million. Drolet-Poitras’ Ace of Clubs 6 of Hearts had a narrow lead over Horic’s King of Clubs 10 of Clubs. The double-paired board missed Horic’s hand meaning that ace-high was good enough to take down the pot.
