Antonin Tesseire Moves In

[Removed:133] opened with a raise to 120,000. Antonin Tesseire stood up and said, "Tapis!" moving all in. Jean Philippe Rohr tanked for a while before folding, as did Cournut, sending a nice little stack-builder over to the native Frenchman.

Antonin Tesseire is the overwhelming crowd favorite here today. While he was all in awaiting the other players' decisions, Tesseire strolled casually around the stage, talking to the spectators in French. We're not exactly sure what he was saying, but he was apparently putting on quite a comedy routine, drawing boisterous laughter from his supporters several times. Some of his fans are directly behind our reporting table, and our ears are still ringing from their loud cheering.
