Bichon Back in Business

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier raised to 525 from early position, and Thomas Bichon called behind him. The cutoff, the small blind, and Bruno Lunais in the big blind also came along for the ride. Action checked to ElkY after the {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop, but with four opponents, he didn't bother with a c-bet. Bichon took over the initiative, betting 1,225. The cutoff and small blind both called to see the {j-Diamonds} turn put plenty of possibilities on the board. The small blind checked, and Bichon fired out 4,000. The cutoff called, and the small blind made her exit. Now heads up, both players quickly checked the {q-Spades} river. Bichon tabled {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}. His frustrated opponent showed {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}, having been counterfeited on the river. With his better kicker, Bichon took the pot and built himself back to starting stack.
