William Foxen

Alex Foxen raised to 12,000 from the hijack and Claude St-Pierre called from the small blind.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades} and St-Pierre checked. Foxen bet 12,000 and St-Pierre quickly called.

The turn was the {6-Clubs}. St-Pierre checked again, Foxen bet 29,000 this time and St-Pierre called again.

The river was the {j-Hearts}. St-Pierre checked for a third and final time and Foxen thought for a few seconds before opting to check back. St-Pierre tabled {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a pair of sixes and Foxen mucked.

Ladies for MacDonald

Level 3 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Laurence Grondin raised to 12,000 from under the gun and Kevin MacDonald three-bet to 30,000 from middle position. Action folded to Duff Charette in the small blind who thought for a moment before putting in a four-bet to 100,000. The big blind and Grondin got out of the way and MacDonald called.

The flop came {10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Charette led out for 80,000. MacDonald paused and then called. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and both players checked to the {8-Spades} on the river. Charette checked and MacDonald waited a moment before betting 125,000. Charette called and MacDonald tabled {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} for a pair of queens. Charette mucked and MacDonald raked in the pot.

Leclerc Takes From Duhamel

Level 3 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

With about 90,000 in the pot already, on a board reading {7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}{k-Diamonds}, Jonathan Duhamel checked from under the gun, as did Mathieu Leclerc from the hijack.

The river was the {2-Hearts} and Duhamel checked again. Leclerc paused for a moment and then put out a bet worth 55,000. Duhamel went into the tank for a brief moment and eventually tossed a couple of chips out to call.

Leclerc confidently tabled {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} for two pair aces and deuces and the 2010 WSOP Main Event champion mucked his hand, sending the pot to Leclerc.
