Crenn Doubles through Mattern

A series of pre-flop raises and re-raises led to an all-in confrontation between Arnaud Mattern and Thierry Crenn. Mattern had Crenn covered and the pot was worth approximately 175,000. These were the hands they revealed at the showdown:

Crenn: {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds}
Mattern: {A-Spades} {10-Hearts}

The board filled out {Q-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {2-Spades} {9-Clubs} {5-Hearts} in favor of Crenn who took down the pot, leaving Mattern with right around 220,000 in chips.

"Nice hand, pocket R's" commented Patryk Hildebranski afterwards, a reference to the French deck that's been in play all week here at the Palm Beach Club.
