With neighbors Gunnar Rabe and Philippe D'Auteuil boasting monster stacks, it was only a matter of time until these two titans of the table locked horns.

The {A-Clubs} river triggered another check by Rabe and a ginormous bet of circa 200,000 from D'Auteuil, effectively putting his opponent all in. Without too much hesitation, Rabe released the hand, allowing D'Auteuil to extend his lead even further
