Forge Doubles Through Le Vaillant to Take Chip Lead
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
After winning a few small pots from his opponent, Tristan Forge checked on a flop of A♦Q♦8♠ from the big blind and Alexandre Le Vaillant bet 800,000 from the button. Forge moved all in for 8,400,000 and Le Vaillant made the call with a covering stack.
Tristan Forge: J♣10♠
Alexandre Le Vaillant: A♥3♦
Both players caught a piece of the board with Le Vaillant making top pair and Forge having a double-gutshot straight draw. The K♥ came in on the turn giving Forge the nut-straight and the 2♠ river was inconsequential. Forge collected a massive double up to take the chip lead but Alexandre Le Vaillant is very close to Forge in chips. It is anyone's game to win from this point.
