Iacopo Brandi

The cards of Iacopo Brandi were just mucked as the dealer announced his seat open and pushed the chips towards the other side of the table. Luc Bindel was the one to collect the chips with {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}, which happened to be the best hand on a {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop.

"I think he had ace-seven," Bindel mentioned in French when asked upon.
