Triple Barrel Doesn't Scare Raus
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Martin Raus opened to 3,000 on the button, Pierre-Paul Paulin three-bet to 7,600, and Raus made the call. The flop came 
and Paulin fired 6,600, which was called by Raus. The 
fell on the turn and Paulin bet 11,800. Raus quickly called again.
The 
dropped on the river and Paulin loaded up once more, this time, for 13,600. Raus called instantly and Paulin mucked just as quick. Raus took down the pot without a showdown.

Pascal Lefrancois Lead Final 12 into Day 2 of $5,000 8-Max
Day 2 of the World Cup of Cards (WCC) Event # 22: $5,000 NL Hold'em 8-Max is set to resume at 2 p.m. inside Playground Poker Club this afternoon. Day 1 chip leader Pascal Lefrancois takes the top spot entering play with 11 hopefuls in the hunt behind him, all vying for the $76,830 first-place prize.
Backed by a monster pot on the last hand of the night on Day 1, Lefrancois will begin Day 2 with 210,900. Lefrancois' closest competitor is WCC Event #9 winner, Francois Goulet with 148,700. World Series of Poker Main Event November Niner Marc-Etienne McLaughlin, World Poker Tour champion Chanracy Khun, and Samuel Chartier are also in the mix.
Though originally scheduled to play for three days, there is a very good chance a new WCC champion will be crowned sometime this evening. Play will resume on Level 11 with blinds starting at 600/1200 and a 200 ante.
