Arnaud Mattern Eliminated in 11th Place (€7,250)

Maxime Taldir

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Heni Mokni opened to 100,000 from middle position, then Arnaud Mattern on the button three-bet all-in for 280,000. Alexis Rozenblat called from the big blind, and so did Mokni.

Both Rozenblat and Mokni checked all the way through a board of K♠7♣10♦2♦, until Rozenblat bet 350,000 on the 8♠ river to make Mokni fold.

Arnaud Mattern: Q♠J♣ All in
Alexis Rozenblat: J♦9♣

"I didn't see that [Mokni] opened, so I call and I was lucky on the river," Rozenblat said while revealing his straight. Mattern only had queen-high and he was eliminated.
