With 200,000 in the pot, on a board reading , the player in the hijack checked and Guillaume Nolet bet 90,000 on the button. His opponent called.

The turn was the and the hijack checked again. This time Nolet fired out a hefty bet worth 250,000 and his opponent tank-folded.

Kristen Bicknell was at the table and asked to see one. He turned over the and raked in the pot.

Nolet may not have very many live scores, but the ones he does have are big ones. He finished in 9th place at the 2014 World Poker Tour (WPT) event right here at Playground for $90,350, followed by an 8th place finish at the 2015 Fallsview Poker Classic for $26,087 and then a 5th place finish at the WPT Canadian Spring Championship at Playground for $51,048.

The Canadian is still hunting for that elusive live tournament win, so we'll be keeping an on him to see how much damage he can do with his growing stack.
