Froehlich Eliminates Lacay

Eric Froehlich

We walked over to Table 5 to find Ludovic Lacay all in preflop with {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} against Eric Froehlich's {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}. The {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop provided Lacay with very little help, but he binked the turn with the {9-Spades}. E-Fro needed one of the two remaining aces in the deck to eliminate the Frenchman, and he drilled it when the {A-Clubs} hit the river.

As Lacay exited the tournament area, Froehlich began buying up all the 25-denomination chips as players prepared for their dinner break.
