A fly has somehow found its way into the poker room and seems to be attracted to Karine Pedeau while leaving everyone else alone.
Pedeau bet 35,000 into a pot of 50,000 with the on the board and Serge Attyasse went into the tank for about four minutes. A call would have meant he was down to about 5,000 in chips if wrong.
