Cruel Exit for Bruel

With the board showing A-9-8, Patrick Bruel bet 600, Paul Fiore raised to 1,500, Bruel shoved all in for 9,000 more, and Fiore made the call.

Bruel held A-J having Fiore's A-10 outkicked. But a six on the turn and a seven on the river gave Fiore a backdoor straight, eliminating Bruel.

Fiore now has 22,000.
