Level 19
: 3,500/7,000, 7,000 ante
Thierry Laigneau moved all in from the cutoff with a short stack of 28,000 and Adrien Dumont isolated with a shove from the small blind. The two players flipped their cards, with Laigneau at risk.
Thierry Laigneau: A♥4♦ 
Adrien Dumont: A♠J♠
Dumont had Laigneau dominated, but Laigneau found some outs when the flop came 3♦2♣9♣ to give him an inside straight draw. The turn was a blank, the 9♦, but the 4♥ river brought Laigneau a pair. He won the pot and doubled his stack, narrowly avoiding a late exit as the bubble approached.

In the 891st episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Kyna England talk about that viral knockout punch between two poker players at Red Rock in Las Vegas. See the video and learn what the Las Vegas Metro Police Department had to say when reached by PokerNews.
Also, learn about a controversy from the EPT Monte Carlo final table in which Aleksandr Shevliakov, who won the tournament, allegedly shot an angle with six players remaining. It caused quite the stir on the live stream, but was it all as it seemed? Shevliakov took to social media to share his perspective, and let's just say it led to an interesting discussion between the crew.
From there, it's recent tournament winners including Jesse Lonis, Maria Konnikova, and Valentin Vornicu; a preview of the WSOP+ App and Tournament of Champions; Allen Kessler living the life of a tournament floorman; and Chad's live reality game charity drive featuring a special "Burger of the Week" at Mark "P0ker H0" Kroon's Player's Bar in Madison, Wisconsin.
