Soulier's Surprise Cripples Baumann
Level 10
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Gaelle Baumann opened in late position and Fabrice Soulier defended his big blind. On a 
flop, Soulier checked, Baumann bet 2,500, Soulier check-raised to 5,700 and Baumann called.
The turn was the 
and Soulier kept up his aggression with a bet of 7,700. Baumann once again came along with the call.
On the 
river, Soulier fired a bet of 22,900, which was for nearly all of Baumann's remaining stack. The French pro seized up her countryman, assessed the situation, then slid in a call.
Soulier tabled the unexpected 
for a turned straight. With a pained look on her face, Baumann threw her hand in the muck and was left with just four big blinds.
At the same table, Thomas Muehloecker's seat has been taken by another player.
