Vella Is Eager to Put His Chips in the Middle
Level 6
: 400/800, 100 ante
The action folded around to Raphael Renaud on the button, and he made it 2,000 to go. Jean-Michel Vella in the very next seat made it 7,500 total, and Hugues Caunille in the big blind made the cold-call. Renaud came along for the ride as well, and the three of them saw a 
flop. Vella continued for 12,000, and only Caunille made the call.
Even before the 
turn had parted with the fingertips of the dealer, Vella had moved all of his blue chips worth 5,000 over the betting line, effectively committing his remaining 43,000 chips. Caunille sighed heavily, shook his head and ultimately mucked his hand. He did lighten up a bit when Vella was kind enough to show the 
before raking in the pot.
