Cormier Not Going Down Without a Fight
Level 37
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Jeffrey Cormier was all in for 700,000 from the cutoff and was called by Alexandre Clusiau on the button and Remy Tetart in the big blind.
Both remaining players checked the flop, turn and river on a runout of K♥4♥7♦6♥9♣. Clusiau had K♦2♦ for a pair of kings and Cormier tabled A♣A♥ for a pair of aces to take the pot.
Cormier would double up a few hands later with 9♥5♥ against Keven Desgagne's 6♥4♣ on a Q♣10♥9♦3♥A♥ runout to score a second full double up and save himself from the brink of elimination.
