Viktor Bensemcha opened from under the gun and was called by Kevin Le Guevel in the hijack. Johann Greboval in the small blind jammed for 12,000 and was called by Vlaznim Bajrami in the big blind before Bensemcha raised all-in for 78,500.
Le Guevel folded but Bajrami went deep into the tank. The clock was called and he eventually made the call.
Johann Greboval: A♥4♥
Viktor Bensemcha: J♦J♥
