Darcourt Hits the Door

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

Guillaume Darcourt just got up out of his chair at Table 1 and exited the Signature Room here at Borgata. We noticed that Harrison Gimbel was scooping the pot, so we bugged him for the details and he was kind enough to retell the tale.

According to the 2010 PCA Main Event champ, Darcourt raised to 450 in late position and Gimbel called out of the small blind with {a-}{j-}. The dealer fanned a flop of {j-}{7-}{2-} with one club, both players checked, and the turn was the {a-Clubs}. Gimbel checked, Darcourt fired out 900, and Gimbel check-raised to 2,725. Darcourt called.

The river was the {j-Clubs}, and it ended up being a jackpot card for Gimbel. He shoved for effectively 10,000 or so, and Darcourt called with {k-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a rivered flush. Gimbel of course had a full house, and shipped the pot.
