A One Million Chip Pot for Blal

Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Gregory Fournier limped from under the gun and was called four times until Hafid Blal in the big blind squeezed to 50,000. Michel Leibgorin in the hijack was the only one to call.
Blal continued for 100,000 on the J♥7♣8♥ flop and saw Leibgorin moving all-in for almost 400,000. Blal called with a slightly bigger stack.
Michel Leibgorin: 8x8x
Hafid Blal: J♣J♠
Both players flopped a set, but Blal had the best one and scooped this massive pot after the 7♠ turn and the Q♣ river.
