Arnaud Mattern raised from the hijack, only for an opponent in the cutoff to move all in. After some dwelling, Mattern called.

Mattern: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

Opponent:

{A-Clubs}

{A-Hearts}

Board:

{7-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

{6-Spades}

{5-Hearts}

{8-Diamonds}

to make Mattern a straight, eliminating his opponent and bumping his stack up to 85,000. He's not the clear-cut chip leader, though, as Annette Obrestad has also upped her stack to the 85,000 region.

Yikes.
