Set for Burtin
Level 19
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
A big pot of 240,000 had brewed between Nicolas Burtin and Franck Bitan on a board of 8♥7♠3♦A♠.
Burtin was all-in for 240,000, and Bitan was in the tank. He burned through three time banks before taking a final glance at his opponent, who was sitting with his hand under his chin, tilted away from Bitan, who was sitting directly beside him. Suddenly, Bitan made the call.
Nicolas Burtin: 7♥7♠
Franck Bitan: A♥Q♣
It was a set versus top pair, and Bitan was dead, the 4♦ river completing the board.
