Eychenne Surrenders to Jafari's Pressure

Level 7 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Jalal Jafari
Jalal Jafari

Baurzhan Akimov bet 8,000 from the cutoff on a board of 4♦Q♥3♠ before Jalal Jafari raised to 18,000 on the button. Thomas Eychenne reraised to 40,000 in the big blind and Akimov folded.

Jafari, though, stuck around to see the Q♠ turn. Eychenne slowed down and checked, and Jafari announced he was all in. Eychenne tanked for a minute before giving up his hand.
