Patrick Bruel just had a bit of misfortune fall his way. Holding pocket tens, he got another shorter-stacked player to put all of his chips in the middle after a 10-5-5 flop. His opponent had pocket jacks.

Alas, a jack fell on the turn, and Bruel has quickly fallen down to 6,000.

When the other player yelled out "There is a God!" after winning, someone from a nearby table cried "Excessive celebrating!" Seems most players are aware of the so-called "Hevad Khan" rule.
