Bevand Bounced

Manuel Bevand doesn't look happy.
Manuel Bevand doesn't look happy.

Manuel Bevand open-shoved all in from early position for 32,600, then Julien Labuissiere reraised all in from the cutoff seat with his below-average-but-better-than- Bevand stack of 42,200. The others folded, Bevand showed {A-Spades}{4-Spades}, and Labuissiere {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}.

Five cards later -- {8-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} -- and all was settled. Bevand has been eliminated, and Labuissiere now has about 75,000.

Assorted Chip Counts

Bounce for Benzinou

After Basri Said opened with a raise from the cutoff seat, Joel Benzinou reraised all in from the small blind for his last 36,400. The big blind folded, and Said said he was calling.

Benzinou should {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and Said {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}. The flop further secured Benzinou's advantage, coming {10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. The turn was the {6-Spades}, making the {3-Clubs} river no matter.

Benzinou survives, though is still relatively short with 77,000. Said, meanwhile, has been crippled down to just 6,000.

Chartier's Aces Run Into Rony's Kings

Samuel Chartier
Samuel Chartier

Samuel Chartier and Damien Rony got into a raising war, and by the end, Chartier's whole stack of 97,000 was in the middle. He was in good shape to double up with {a-Spades}{a-Hearts} against Rony's {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}, but then, it wouldn't be a poker tournament without some good old fashioned aces cracking. The {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop was safe, but the {k-Clubs} on the turn got a groan from the whole table. The {5-Diamonds} river didn't help, and Chartier beat a hasty path to the door. Rony gave a sheepish smile as he stacked up 230,000.

Goyer on the Go

Davidi Kitai opened with a raise to 5,500 from early position and got one call from Guillaume Goyer in the cutoff. The flop came {10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{8-Hearts}. Kitai checked, Goyer bet 9,200, and Kitai called. The turn brought the {6-Clubs} and another check from Kitai. Goyer bet 27,000 this time, and after some deliberation Kitai made the call.

The river was the {A-Clubs}. Kitai quickly checked, and after a bit of hesitation Goyer checked as well. Goyer tabled his cards -- {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} for a set of fours -- and Kitai grinned sheepishly, seeming to indicate that he might well have lost more there had Goyer bet the river.

Goyer is now up to 240,000 while Kitai has 115,000.
