Samuel Fournier Bubbles EPT Cyprus Main Event

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Samuel Fournier raised to 50,000 in the hijack, leaving himself 10,000 behind. Mihai Niste then jammed all in with a covering stack in the seat next to him, after which the action folded back to Fournier.

After a couple of minutes and a clarification of the rules, Fournier called and both hands were revealed.

Samuel Fournier: QQ All in
Mihai Niste: AK

It was a classic race. Fournier stayed ahead with his queens on the 898 flop but the 3 turn brought a flush draw for Niste's ace-king.

The river was ordered to be dealt, prompting the 5 to appear on the felt. Niste had made his flush to eliminate Fournier as the official bubble boy of the Main Event.

The remaining 191 players were all in the money and the room exploded in celebratory applause before play continued.
