Balleur Is Ballin With a Big Double

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

A preflop raising war saw Kym Possible squeeze to 20,000 and she then called the all-in by Gaetan Balleur for 41,800 total.

Gaetan Balleur: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Kym Possible: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Possible was asking for the near impossible broadway on the flop but instead, Balleur had locked up the large double by the time time the board showed {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{9-Hearts}. That made the {4-Spades} river a formality and Balleur doubled, sending Possible well below the starting stack after her hot start into the day.
