The Becquart of War

Just before the break, Julian Becquart was tangled up in a big pot with Jonas Klausen. On a flop of {8-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}, Becquart let out with 32,000 chips. Klausen raised to 100,000, and Becquart moved all in for just a few thousand more. Klausen had no decision to make really, and he put in the call.

He tabled {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} for the overpair, but he was drawing nearly dead versus the {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} flopped flush of Becquart. The turn {A-Hearts} locked it up, with the {4-Clubs} completing the board. With that exchange, Becquart has doubled up over the 200,000-chip mark, knocking Klausen down to 260,000.
