Early Fireworks as Noel Busts Machabert
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Around 11,000 was in the middle on a completed board of 8♦7♥6♦Q♠5♥, in a hand between Alexis Machabert on the button and Rudy Noel in the small blind.
There was 22,000 in front of Machabert, while Noel had the all-in triangle in front of him, having put the entirety of his remaining 46,000 stack into the middle.
Machabert went into the tank, and remained deep in thought for around three to four minutes.
He ultimately made the call, only to see that his 9♠9♥ for the rivered one-card nine-high straight was beaten by Noel's 10♦9♦ for the flopped ten-high straight, in a brutal early cooler.
