Amourette <3 ♥s

Antoine Amourette has good reason to love hearts - they just won him a 280k pot bringing his stack up close to the stratosphere, over 400k (and still stacking). A monstrous pot developed after there was a button threebet preflop from Jerome Zerbib preflop and two players, Amourette one of them, made the call.
Already a chunky pot, the flop came 
and both players checked to Zerbib who pushed in his entire stock of yellow 1k chips (about 25k). The third flop-reacher reached no further, and it was back to Amourette, who went into one of his trademark thinks. Like we've said before, the outcome of these dwell spells is very tough to predict, and while Zerbib leaned back in his chair looking comfortable Amourette looked like he had a tough one here...
Eventually he slid out a tower of 5k chips, over 120k, and immediately Zerbib announced, "Tapis!" getting his stack over the line. On their backs...
Zerbib showed 
and that he wasn't three-betting with rubbish on the button.
Amourette showed 
and that the first caller might have been an enticement preflop.
Turn...
River... 
- no filling up for Zerbib this time and he bowed out gracefully, giving his opponent a commanding chip lead in the process.
