Third Bullet Going Better for Thorel

Level 6 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The board read {8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{j-Spades}{3-Spades} with 174,500 in the middle already.

Michael Addamo had checked in the big blind and Jean-Noel Thorel shoved on the button which seemed to pain Addamo to no end. The rest of the table smiled as Thorel had only just sat down. After using a time bank card, Addamo made the call.

Thorel tabled {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the pair of jacks with the ten-kicker. Addamo turned around {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for the same pair of jacks but with the lower kicker.

The table all laughed while Addamo shook his head.

The river completed the board with the {6-Diamonds} for Thorel to double up immediately before the players were all sent for another 20-minute break.
