Chau Runs Hot
Level 18
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Moments after he arrived at the table, Olivier Baeten raised to 12,000 from the cutoff and French actor Frédéric Chau defended from the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 2♦10♦2♣ and Olivier Baeten continued for 10,000. Chau check-called.
On the 9♣ turn, Chau led out for 22,000. Baeten raised all-in for 66,000 and Chaud snap-called.
Olivier Baeten: K♠K♦
Frédéric Chau: Q♣2♠
Baeten said that he knew his kings were going to be cracked, and he was right as Chau hit trips on the turn. The Q♥ completed the board and Baeten left the tournament area.
