Don't Say That!

[user66118]

First into the pot, Nicolo Calia open-shoved for just less than 100,000 total. When the decision came around to Samuel Touil, he re-raised and isolated himself against the at-risk Calia. When the rest of the table folded out of the way, it was showdown time:

Calia: {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

Touil:

{J-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

"Allez, papa!" screamed Touil. Apparently that's French for "Hit a two-outer on me," and that's just what happened. The flop rolled out {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

, and both Calia and Touil practically fell backwards in shock. The turn and river were blanks, {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

and

{Q-Clubs}

respectively, and Calia has picked up and unlikely double-up, drawing even with Touil after taking about a third of his chips.
