Ghislain Soucy, an experienced tournament player from the area who has been nurturing a small stack all day has been eliminated on the bubble in the Playground 200 on Table 68.
Christian Larocque opened the action with a limp from utg, which was followed by a raise to 26K from Jason Conforti. Ghislain, directly to Jason’t right, shoved for about 100K and action folded back to Christian, who made the call. Jason folded.
Once it was determined that this was the only hand with a called all-in, the cards were revealed.
Ghislain:
Christian:
Ghislain would need help to move forward. The flop: – there was more help for the Aces than Ghislain’s Eights on that flop. The turn and river were pretty, but total blanks for Ghislain and he was sent to the rail just one place out of the money.
