Pirault Rivered in Huge Pot

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On a flop of {10-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, Francois Pirault led out for 36,000 from the big blind and was called by Daman Orestad on the button.

On the {a-Spades} turn, Pirault moved all-in for Orestad's remaining 130,000 chips.

Orestad tanked for almost 3 minutes before opting to call.

Daman Orestad: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Francois Pirault: {k-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}

Pirault had the best of it with two pair versus Orestad's turned top pair until the {a-Clubs} fell on the river, giving the huge pot to Orestad.
