Raise and Take It for Martini

Level 37 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

With the three short stacks around, it's mostly Julien Martini who's been raising it up and stealing the blinds and antes. Martini's successful raise and take its, as well as a small pot against Jean-René Fontaine, has moved him up to the 50M mark.

Alberto Ah-Line raised to 1,200,000 from the cutoff and Jean-René Fontaine called on the button. Jan Teunis three-bet shoved 8,450,000 from the big blind, Ah-Line folded, and Fontaine called after about ten seconds.

Jan Teunis: {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}
Jean-René Fontaine: {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

The flop brought {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, giving Teunis a straight draw to go with his kings and queens. None of the outs would pop up as the {7-Spades} turn and {6-Diamonds} river bricked. The last remaining Dutchman said his goodbyes in 6th place and went of to collect his prize of €123,000.

No War Between Big Stacks

Level 36 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Jean-René Fontaine raised to 1,200,000 on the button and Julien Martini defended from the small blind. The flop was {J-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Martini check-called a bet of 2,200,000. Both players checked the {4-Diamonds} on the turn.

On the {8-Spades} river, Martini bet 2,600,000. Fontaine put together a call, took another good look at the board, then slid it in.

Confidently, Martini tabled {K-Hearts}{J-Clubs} for top pair with a strong kicker. Much to his surprise, however, Fontaine mustered up {4-Spades}{4-Hearts} for a turned set of fours to claim the pot.
