Picault Doubles

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Anthony Picault was back to his silent fist pumping ways after doubling-up through Craig Hopkins.

The PokerStars qualifier raised to 23,000 from mid position before Picault three-bet all-in for 169,000 from the next seat (hijack). The action was folded back to Hopkins who thought for a few minutes and made a reluctant looking call.

Hopkins: {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Picault: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The board ran {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} to see the Frenchman's advantage hold. Hopkins dropped to 180,000.
