When you combine creative play, big stacks, and big hands, there's no telling what's going to happen. The corner table has been non-stop action all day. This time, it got really expensive for Alexandre Gomes. He, Nicolas Levi, and Tristan Clemençon took a flop three ways. Clemençon checked the 
board, and Gomes bet 5,000. Levi flatted, and Clemençon got out of the way.
The 
turn made things really interesting. Gomes checked, and Levi bet 12,300. Alex sized up Nicolas' stack before raising to 27,700. Levi responded by moving all in, and Gomes snap-called. Gomes only needed to see one of Levi's queens to know what the Frenchman held. Gomes cursed as he tabled 
, drawing to two outs against Levi's 
. The river was the 
instead, and Levi earned a full double for his 69,400. He surged to the chip lead with around 160,000. Gomes was left growling at his remaining 22,000.
