[user25067]

"Raise my blind again!" quipped Peter Jepsen as the action was folded around to Antony Lellouche. Lellouche, who has been quite active at his table, obliged with an opening raise to 2,900 and Jepsen made the call.

Jepsen led out for 7,900 on the flop, Lellouche raised to 18,000, and Jepsen shipped it in for 27,000 total. Lellouche called, his {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

in excellent shape against Jepsen's {K-?}

{K-?}

{J-?}

. No help for Jepsen as the turn and river came {7-?}

{7-?}

{3-?}

and he hit the rail.

With that pot, Lellouche's stack reached 103,500, the first player to top 100,000 in this event.
