Michaud Takes Out Belgazi

Louis Michaud opened to 1,000 from under the gun and Nabil Hajjoubi called from the next seat over. Ayoub Belghazi three-bet to 3,500 from the small blind and was called by both players.

Belghazi continued for 3,000 on the K♥7♦2♠ flop, and Michaud was the only caller. Michaud then called a bet on the 2♣ turn to bring in the 9♥ river.

Belghazi fired out another 12,000, leaving around 28,000 behind. Michaud put his opponent all-in, and after some thinking time Belghazi called for his tournament life.

Michaud rivered nines full of deuces with his 9♦9♠, putting a bad beat on Belgazi's A♣K♦.
