Fournier Ousts Michaud
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Clement Michaud opened to 40,000 from the hijack. Matthias Lipp and Gregory Fournier called from the cutoff and small blind respectively.
Michaud bet 50,000 and 100,000 on the flop and turn, with Fournier being the only caller on both occasions.
With the A♦8♦7♥4♣5♠ board on show, Fournier moved all in as the big stack. Michaud had 270,000 behind and called for his tournament life after spending nearly three minutes in the tank.
Fournier tabled 7♦5♦ for sevens and fives and Michaud tapped the table to signal he had been beaten. He had called with A♥Q♣ and headed to the payout desk.
