Hugo is the Victor
Level 8
: 400/800, 75 ante
Hugo Lemaire pushed all-in for 22,875 over the top of Tobias Renkemeier's 2,000 raise in the last hand of the level. The German tanked well into the break asking several questions such as:
"Where are you from?" ("Italy!" joked Lemaire when in fact he is French)
"Do you have jacks? Because I can't beat jacks."
"Would you do this with eights?"
Finally Renkemeier decided to go with it and made the call with flipping against Lemaire's , the board coming and the Frenchman doubling to 45,000.
Renkemeier, "I hate ace king."
He's left with 30,000.
