Action was heads-up with 60,000 in the pot and 
on the board when Christophe Panetti bet 46,000 from the big blind. Jacques Der Megreditchian responded with a shove for his last 275,000 from the cutoff and Panetti went into the tank.

The action started with a raise to 20,000 by [Removed:510] in the cutoff and Ariel Sebban in the big blind then three-bet to what appeared to be 90,000.
Trofimov four-bet jammed and that instantly let Sebban sigh as he sunk back into his chair. Without using a time bank, Sebban then called it off as both players were hovering around half a million in chips.
Ariel Sebban:
[Removed:510]:
The 
flop left Sebban on very thin ice and it was all over on the turn, which made the river a formality.
Both stacks were counted and the 547,000 of Trofimov covered, as Sebban had around 480,000 total to knock out the Frenchman.
