Back in October, Jason Lavallee won the PokerStars.com European Poker Tour London High Roller for £357,700. Lavallee is in today's field looking to become the first player to ever win two EPT high roller titles, but he just faced a set back in a hand against David Kaufmann.

flop. When the

completed the board on the river.
Lavallee slowed down with a check, and Kaufmann took his time before betting 8,400.

for the nuts. Lavallee stared at the cards for a moment and then sent his own to the muck unseen.
