Ace-High Will Do for Thorel
Level 7
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Tsugunari Toma opened to 6,000 from under the gun and received calls from Gerard Pique in the cutoff and Jean-Noel Thorel in the small blind.
All three players checked through the 8♦7♣6♠ flop leading to the 8♥ on the turn. Thorel checked, Toma bet 8,000, Pique got out of the way and Thorel made the call.
Both players checked the 5♠ river.
Thorel showed down A♦10♣ for just ace-high and after looking at the board for a moment, Toma revealed the A♠ in his hand before sending it into the muck.
