Frenchman

Gabor Szollosy and Thierry Loqmane limped in, and both players called when Mark Naalden shoved from the small blind for 2,100.

They saw a {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{A-Hearts}

flop, and Loqmane bet pot -- 7,200. Szollosy moved in for a total of 8,700, Loqmane called, and it was a massive three-way showdown.

Loqmane: {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

for a set
Szollosy: {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{A-Clubs}

for the nut flush draw
Naalden: {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{K-Diamonds}

{5-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

for a suddenly not very good hand

"Allez!" shouted Loqmane.

Turn: {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

River:

{J-Diamonds}

Loqmane's full house won the lot, and Naalden and Szollosy made their exits. "Always the Frenchman," sighed another player at the table. "Yes," said a cheerful Loqmane, "Frenchmen are lucky bastards."

This particular Frenchman is up to around 40,000.
