This was the second time Simon-Pier Belair-Grondin has made a final table in this type of $135 + $15 multi-day event here at Playground Poker Club, however he was not able to improve on his 5th place finish in the Fall of 2013, as he was just knocked out in 10th place.
After losing most of his chips to David St-Louis last level, he was grinding his short stack and waiting for a spot to stage his comeback. Action folded around to him in late position, and he decided to move in with around 675,000 to his name. Everyone but Martin in the big blind folded, and the two opened their cards:
Simon-Pier:
Martin:
Board: : Ac
10th place: Simon-Pier Belair-Grondin – $1,700.00
