Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel
Jean-Noel Thorel

The board read {7-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and Jean-Noel Thorel shoved for 38,100 from the big blind in a pot that already contained over 30,000. Dominik Nitsche called from the cutoff.

Jean-Noel Thorel: {7-Clubs}{6-Spades}
Dominik Nitsche: {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Nitsche had flopped two pair while Thorel had the same two pair but with the lower kicker.

The river completed the board with the {5-Spades} to keep Thorel alive as he rivered a straight to double up.
