Lhuillier Makes Huge Hero Call Against Joyce

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jean-Emmanuel Lhuillier
Jean-Emmanuel Lhuillier

With around 300,000 chips already in the pot on a flop of 1047, Philip Joyce and Mitchell Johnson checked, then Jean-Emmanuel Lhuillier fired 90,000. Joyce made it 265,000, Johnson folded, and Lhuillier called.

They saw the A drop on the turn where Joyce checked, Lhuillier bet 80,000, and Joyce called.

When the 3 landed on the river, Joyce checked it over again, and Lhuillier made a bet of 180,000. After thinking for a while, Joyce shoved, which gave Lhuillier a decision for his remaining 1,150,000 he had behind.

After around four minutes of tanking, there was still no decision from Lhuillier, so the floor were called to initiate a countdown. With just a single second remaining in the count, Lhuillier put his chips in.

Joyce then showed 76 for a pair of sevens, but Lhuillier had the winner after he paired his ace with A5.

Big, big call from Lhuillier.
