Full House Over Full House and Kihara Busts Bichon

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante
Naoya Kihara
Naoya Kihara

With 15,050 in the middle on the {10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Spades} board, Naoya Kihara bet 4,800. His opponent was Thomas Bichon, and the Frenchman went into the tank for a little bit before he made the call.

The dealer dealt the {9-Hearts} out on the river, and Kihara announced that he was all in. Bichon insta-called. with his remaining 17,000 or so. Kihara turned up the {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} for the top full house, tens over fours, and Bichon had a look of disbelief on his face.

"Ahhh, you have tens?" he asked, surprisingly.

Because it was an all-in showdown, Bichon had to table his hand, which turned out to be the {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for the second best full house. Kihara had him covered, and that meant Bichon was out the door. Kihara climbed to 67,000 in chips.
