Turchi Busts De Cleen

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Nico De Cleen had jammed from the small blind for around 29,000 and been called by Virgile Turchi in the big, with De Cleen at risk.

Nico De Cleen: KQ
Virgile Turchi: AA

When he saw Turchi's hand De Cleen laughed and said "I know how to pick my spots."

The A102 gave Turchi top set and De Cleen a straight draw, but the 10 turn extinguished any hopes of a turnaround giving Turchi a full house and leaving De Cleen drawing dead.

De Cleen was already out of his chair before the 6 river completed the board.
