Ghillain Nearly Triples up

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Cid Ghillain, Jeremie Essertel, and the player in the cutoff were in a pot on a flop of 58J.

Ghillain was already all in for approximately 20,000 on the button and the player in the cutoff was all in for a bit less. Essertel had both players covered and called from the big blind.

Cutoff: 55All in
Cid Ghillain: 109All in
Jeremie Essertel: 88

Essertel found himself in great shape to score a double-elimination with his set of eights, but the 7 turn filled Ghillain's straight to take the lead.

The 2 river bricked out and Gillain nearly tripled up while Essertel took a big hit to his stack.

Preflop Cooler Sends Guinand's Stack Soaring

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Victor Guinand
Victor Guinand

Victor Guinand was heads-up from the big blind against a lone opponent in the small blind.

The small blind had already had a bet of 2,200 in front of him and Guinand raised to 9,000. His opponent responded by going all in for approximately 20,000 and Guinand quickly called to put him at risk.

Small blind: AKAll in
Victor Guinand: AA

It was the best-possible scenario for Guinand, and the Q10368 runout kept his rockets out in front to claim rest of his opponent's chips.
