Thorel Done For

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel
Jean-Noel Thorel

We joined the action on the flop reading {2-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. Jean-Noel Thorel checked and called a 2,800 bet from Dominik Nitsche. The turn card was the {4-Spades}. Again Thorel checked and when Nitsche bet 7,200 he check-raised him all in. It was 41,000 and Nitsche made the call with {3-Clubs}{3-Spades}. Thorel was behind with {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} and needed that heart to stay in the tournament. The {a-Diamonds} river sent him packing and Nitsche won a huge pot.

Govert Metaal sitting at the table said, “I was hoping for a heart.”

“Come on. I thought we were friends.” Nitsche repied. Metaal simply stated, “I am an honest player.” He knows that Nitsche with chips is trouble.
