Nothing Short About Darcourt's Stack

Guillaume Darcourt is doing some pretty good work here today, and we pick him up as he's involved in a heads-up pot on the turn. The board showed {8-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {6-Spades} , and there was more than 25,000 in the pot when Darcourt bet 11,500. Alexandre Sikias was his lone opponent, and Sikias didn't waste too much time calling to see the {7-Hearts} fill out the board. After another check in front of him, Darcourt took his cue to bet 15,000 at the pot. Sikias only had 19,550 chips left in front of him, considering the play for more than 75% of his remaining stack. After a couple minutes of pained deliberation, he talked himself into the fold and quickly shooed his cards back to the dealer.
