Guenni Is New Lazarus

Hand #133: Antoine Amourette pushed the small blind and Per Linde folded in the big.

Hand #134: Theo Jorgensen raised to 200,000 on Mickael Guenni's big blind again, the latter folded.

Hand #135: It was passed to Guenni in the small blind who counted out his remaining 240,000 or so chips, tanking for a couple of minutes.

"Time!" said Jorgensen and put a big stack of 25k chips out in front of himself, effectively telling Guenni to play for his stack or fold. The Frenchman did the latter and Jorgensen was given a warning for acting out of turn. Clearly he's still riled by Guenni's refusal to move at anything other than an ultra slow pace.

Hand #136: Guenni moved all-in from the button and both Jorgensen and Amourette called the 175,000 shove. The two players checked the {3-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} flop before Amourette moved in on the {K-Diamonds} turn. Jorgensen got out of the way and Amourette showed {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} for the nut flush, Guenni had {Q-Hearts} {10-Clubs} and somehow, someway, hit the {10-Hearts} river.

His friends went ballistic celebrating and he's now moved up to the highest chip count he's had in hours at almost 600,000. The problem is that is only worth 7.5BB's at this point.
