Depasse On Right End of Brutal Cooler

Richard Hayes

Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

There was 50,000 in front of Jens Van der Auwera on the button, and 142,000 in front of Francois Depasse in the big blind.

Van der Auwera jammed for around 550,000 total, and Depasse's chips were almost in the middle before his opponent finished his betting action.

Jens Van der Auwera: K♠K♦ All in
Francois Depasse: A♣A♠

It was a harsh cooler, particularly button versus big blind, and there was no escape on the 9♣8♥5♣4♣Q♣ runout, Depasse ending up with the nut flush.
