Bruel Triples Up
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Patrik Antonius raised from the hijack to 10,000 and was called by Ren Lin in the cutoff. Apparently card-dead for a long moment, Patrick Bruel on the button chose this hand to go all in for 38,000 chips. Antonius called, as well as Lin.
The action between the two players who could still act was pretty simple because they both checked all the way through on 6♣6♥8♥4♦2♠.
Patrick Bruel: J♦J♠
Patrik Antonius: A♠9♠
Ren Lin: XxXx
Bruel dodged bullets, as Antonius only had an ace-high, and Lin mucked his cards. So, with his jacks, the French singer won the pot and tripled up."A little bit of breath," he said while taking his chips.
