Thorel Hits Two Pair
Level 4
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Felix Bleiker opened with a raise to 4,000 and was called in two spots — Kyle Frey on the button, and Jean-Noel Thorel in the big blind.
Thorel checked on the 
flop, and Bleiker made a bet of 7,700. Frey called in position, and Thorel called as well.
The Frenchman checked again on the 
turn, and Bleiker fired another 25,000. Frey gave up, but Thorel wasn't ready to do the same. He grabbed four of his T25,000 chips and played around with them a little before tossing in just one to call.
The 
completed the board, and Thorel slid forward another one of his T25,000 chips. Bleiker called, but mucked upon being shown 
by Thorel, who had turned two pair.
