Castaignon Collects
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
With about 45,000 in the middle and the board showing 
, Jean-Jacques Zeitoun fired a bet of 30,500 from the cutoff seat and Remi Castaignon called from the button. Both then checked the 
turn.
The river brought the 
and another check from Zeitoun, and after a bit of a pause Castaignon bet 80,000. Zeitoun tanked for several minutes at that bet, pointing at the board as if to count his way through the steps of the hand. Finally he folded his hand face up — 
— and Castaignon collected the chips.
