In a heads-up pot, Eddie Blumenthal bet on sixth street and was called by Bruno Fitoussi. Blumenthal bet again on seventh street and Fitoussi went into the tank before calling.
Blumenthal showed a straight and a seven low and it was good for a scoop as the Frenchman mucked in defeat.
At the other table, Craig Chait was left short after unsuccessfully bluffing David Rheem on seventh street.
