Chaoui Goes After Rezaei Again; Fournier Catches Tuna Making a Move
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Around 35,000 was in the middle as Armin Rezaei and Mehdi Chaoui went heads-up to the 8♣3♣2♦ flop. Chaoui then bet 9,500 from the big blind, and Rezaei called in the cutoff.
The turn was the 2♠ and Chaoui moved all in, having Rezaei's remaining 35,000 covered. "I don't want you to bust me twice in one tournament," Rezaei said as he gave up his hand.
At another table, Alexandre Fournier had three-bet to 15,000 in the big blind, then snap-called for 70,300 when Akin Tuna shoved from the cutoff.
Alexandre Fournier: Q♣Q♠ 
Akin Tuna: K♣10♦
Fournier was ahead with his queens, and Tuna didn't connect with the 8♠8♥5♦6♠2♠ board as Fournier earned the double-up.
