D'Auteuil Doing Work

[user66118]

Philippe D'Auteuil started the day off right with a double up in the first few hands. Since then, though, he's been slowly sliding back down the leader board towards his starting stack. We joined him as he was involved in another pot.

On a turned board showing {10-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {2-Diamonds}, Jorge Pozo checked over to D'Auteuil. Philippe made a bet of 3,200 into a pot of about 8,000, and Pozo tank-called.

The river paired the board with the {J-Hearts}, and Pozo checked again. This time, D'Auteuil checked behind. "Queen-high," said Pozo, ready to muck. D'Auteuil showed up the winning {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} to take the pot, and he continues to move back in the right direction. It's been a while since we checked on him, and we see that he's up over 50,000 for the first time in a long time.
