Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

On a {k-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} board two players including Katie Swift checked to Antoine Labat who bet 800. Only the small blind called with Swift and another player folding.

The turn {9-Hearts} was checked by both players. The river was the {5-Clubs} and it checked to Labat once more who shoved for 8,300. His opponent called.

Labat turned over {9-Clubs}{9-Spades} for a full house and his opponent flung {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs} open and mucked. He was covered by just 300 chips and was eliminated.
