Carl Martel Eliminated in 8th Place

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Carl Martel
Carl Martel

On a {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds} flop, and two checks in front of him, Pierre-Paul Paulin bet 12,500. Jean-Louis Cyr check-called and Carl Martel check-shoved all-in for 94,000. Paulin made the call, putting Martel at risk.

Martel: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Paulin: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Martel was ahead but Paulin had flopped the world with an open-ended straight flush draw. The {5-Spades} on the turn was a safe card for Martel, but the {8-Clubs} on the river gave Paulin a straight and the pot.

Pushing 400k, McLaughlin's Barrels Get a Fold

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Marc Etienne Mclaughlin
Marc Etienne Mclaughlin

Carl Martel opened to 9,000 and received calls from Pierre-Paul Paulin in the cutoff, Jean-Louis Cyr in the small blind, and Marc-Etienne McLaughlin in the big blind.

The four players saw a {7-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop. The first three players checked to Paulin, who fired a bet of 14,500. Action folded to McLaughlin who check-raised to 41,000. Paulin made the call and the {4-Clubs} fell on the turn.

First to act, McLaughlin slid out a bet worth 50,000, and after some deliberation, Paulin tossed his cards into the muck, relinquishing the chip lead along with it.
