Both players shook hands and the board came to leave drawing dead. He left the table with a smile and "It was a pleasure."
Other recent casualties include Gregor Kampmann, Levent Efe and Henning W..

Hallaert had led the turn for 30,000, before Bitoun reached for a bunch of orange 5,000-value and slammed them on the felt. The dealer counted out the raise as 95,000, with Hallaert quickly deciding to put the rest in. He was only asking Bitoun for another 36,000, but Bitoun seemed reluctant to oblige. As the time ran over the 30-second shotclock, forcing him to use one of his timebank cards, Bitoun took one last look at his hole cards and put them into the muck.
