Edgard Raffoul

Edgard Raffoul filled PokerNews in on the action as he was getting up from the table. Apparently, with action on him, he opened from the hijack and Vladislav Ivanov three-bet him. Raffoul then raised to 400,000 chips, essentially all in and Ivanov got Raffoul to commit the rest of his chips. They had very similar stacks but Ivanov just had a little more.

Edgard Raffoul: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Vladislav Ivanov: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{a-Hearts} to spike the ace on the river for the Russian player, sending the friendly Raffoul to the rail.
