Albiges Starts Off With a Cooler
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Maher Achour bet 600 from under the gun on a flop of A♥6♥5♣ and Antonino Venneri and Benoit Albiges called in the blinds.
All three players checked the J♥ turn. The river was the 2♣ and Albiges bet 2,000.
Achour then raised to 6,000 as Venneri got out of the way. Albiges, though, came back with a reraise to 12,000 and Achour snap-called.
Albiges turned over K♥8♥ for the nut flush and Achour tossed Q♥9♥ into the muck.
