A Four and Five-Bet Jam
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Stephane Guelpa opened to 1,600 from early position before Francky Magliocco three-bet to 9,500 from the cutoff. Antoine Rahal then moved all in for 17,900 from the button, which prompted Tobias Duthweiler to five-bet jam for around 65,000 from the small blind.
Guelpa folded while Magliocco argued that the small blind could only call. He was mistaken after the dealer explained, which was backed up by the tournament director. Magliocco folded and the cards went on their backs.
Antoine Rahal: 4♦4♣
Tobias Duthweiler: A♦3♦
There were some eyebrows raised at what cards were tabled, but Rahal didn't mind as he breathed life into his stack after remaining best following the 6♥10♦5♣Q♦Q♣ runout.
