May De La Gorce Be With You

Guillaume de la Gorce raised to 2,500 preflop and received one caller in the small blind.

The flop was {8-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} and the small blind check-called a bet of 6,000.

On the {J-Diamonds} turn the small blind now moved all-in for 50,000 and de la Gorce made the call with {10-?} {9-?} for the nuts, up against {A-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}.

The river was the {A-Hearts}, aces up were good, but not good enough against the flopped straight.

De la Gorce is now the chip leader with 169,000.
