Tessier Remains the Biggest Stack on the Table
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Gilles Simon raised to 9,000 from the cutoff before being faced with a three-bet to 50,000 from small blind Benjamin Tessier. Simon made the call and the 3♣8♠8♣ flop fanned out. Tessier continued for another 30,000 chips and Simon put in that amount as well.
The J♠ turn then arrived and Tessier went all in, covering Simon's 105,000 stack. Simon weighed his options for a bit but eventually sighed and threw his cards into the muck.
