Cyril Mazet opened to 900 from early position and Ingrid Etienne to his left called. All the other players folded to the big blind who called as well.

Both the big blind and Mazet checked the 10♣8♥7♣ flop, but Etienne bet 1,000. The big blind called while Mazet's cards went into the muck.

Etienne and the big blind checked the 5♠ turn, and the 2♥ river brought no more action.

Etienne then revealed Kx9x saying that the flop "looked nice" for her, but she lost against the big blind's A♦7♦.
