Yaginuma Eliminated, Sitbon Rues Folding

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Julien Sitbon
Julien Sitbon

Charles La Boissonniere kicked the action off with a raise to 2,500 from under the gun, which Julien Sitbon called before action folded to Jesse Yaginuma in the small blind. Yaginuma opted to move all in for 29,500, to which La Boissonniere responded with an all-in of his own, covering Sitbon behind him.

Sitbon went deep into the tank, ultimately electing to return his cards to the dealer.

Jesse Yaginuma: 1010 All in
Charles La Boissonniere: AK

Sitbon made the table aware that he had folded pocket jacks, which stung even more when the dealer provided a QA8J8 board.

While Sitbon was left to think about what could have been, La Boissonniere scooped in the pot, and Yaginuma was eliminated.
