Level 8 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Jacques Kalifa
Jacques Kalifa

Kevin Houghton opened to 2,600 in the cutoff and was called by Pierre Drochon on the button. Rodrigue Lampin made it 10,500 from the small blind before Jacques Kalifa moved all-in for 37,500 in the big blind.

Houghton called, Drochon mucked and Lampin went into the tank for several minutes. The clock was called and his had became dead as he could not decide what action to take in the allotted time.

Jacques Kalifa: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Kevin Houghton: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Kalifa moved into the lead following a dream flop of the {k-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, Kalifa just had one immediate out and he was unable to hit after the {3-Clubs} turn and {a-Hearts} river.
