Hugo Saint opened to 7,000 from under the gun and was called by Guillaume Diaz from the cutoff. The big blind also called.
Saint continued for 8,000 on the 
flop and was only called by Diaz. The Winamax Team Pro member then called a bet of 30,000 on the 
turn. The 
river paired the board and Saint slid in a stack T-5,000 chips to put Diaz all-in.
Diaz eventually folded and as he did, Romain Lewis shouted "Show the bluff!"
Saint obliged and rolled over his 
for king-high. Diaz smirked and said "One-up," indicating he had king-queen.
