Vaka Dispatches Quetelart in the Opening Level
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
With around 7,000 chips in the pot on a board that read 3♠6♠2♦9♣, Monica Vaka had checked it over to Adrien Quetelart, who then made a bet of 6,000. Vaka put in the check-raise to 15,000, which left Quetelart with a decision for his remaining stack of just over 8,000. After a while in the tank, Quetelart elected to put himself at risk, and called.
Adrien Quetelart: Q♣Q♦ 
Monica Vaka: 9♠9♦
It was a great turn card for Vaka as she improved to a set, which left Quetelart with just two outs to survive. The J♥ river was close, but not close enough for Quetelart as he became one of the first casualties of the day.
