Thorel Busts to O'Dwyer

Level 8 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel
Jean-Noel Thorel

Jean-Noel Thorel is the first player to bust on both his two bullets, resulting in the exit of the Frenchman as only one reentry is allowed. Thorel was involved in a three-way hand to the {Q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flop and bet 15,000 out of the big blind.

Steve O'Dwyer raised to 50,000 and the third player folded, Thorel asked the dealer for the amount and then called. On the {7-Clubs} turn, Thorel quickly check-called another bet worth 50,000 before the {9-Spades} fell on the river.

Thorel checked with about 80,000 chips behind, O'Dwyer asked him to show the stack and then shoved. The Frenchman called it off with {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades} but ended up second best to the {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} of O'Dwyer.
