Don't Say That!

First into the pot, Nicolo Calia open-shoved for just less than 100,000 total. When the decision came around to Samuel Touil, he re-raised and isolated himself against the at-risk Calia. When the rest of the table folded out of the way, it was showdown time:

Calia: {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds}
Touil: {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}

"Allez, papa!" screamed Touil. Apparently that's French for "Hit a two-outer on me," and that's just what happened. The flop rolled out {A-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {9-Clubs}, and both Calia and Touil practically fell backwards in shock. The turn and river were blanks, {K-Diamonds} and {Q-Clubs} respectively, and Calia has picked up and unlikely double-up, drawing even with Touil after taking about a third of his chips.
