Maxime came into Day 4 of the TonyBet Winter Festival Main Event with a under-average stack, and although he played quite a few hands and found a some nice spots to pick up blinds and antes, he was never really able to run his stack up much past his starting point.
In recent orbits, he fell below the 15 big blind mark and was cornered into a push-or-fold style of play. Most of his shoves were uncalled, until this most recent one, where he moved in for 955,000 from utg, finding a call only from Will Molson in the big blind.

Maxime has a very favourable flop given the situation, but failed to improve enough to win him the pot on the
board. Will, who started the hand with 1,250,000, added some much needed chips to his stack as play enters 3-handed.
4th place: Maxime Lejeune Hebert – $32,000.00
