Chevalier Gets Trembaly Off Best Hand
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
In a pot worth 43,500, Pierre Chevalier moved all in from the big blind on a completed board of 6♠J♠K♣9♣3♠. Alexis Tremblay went deep into the tank on the button, being covered for his stack of 33,100.
The duo engaged in plenty of table talk during the next five minutes, during which Tremblay claimed to have two pair, and Chevalier suggested his opponent should fold such a holding.
Eventually, the clock was called on Tremblay. He let his timer run out, making his hand an automatic fold.
Upon Chris Da-Silva's insistence, Chevalier showed K♥8♥ to the table, a naked top pair, much to the frustration of Tremblay.
