Yorane Kerignard
Yorane Kerignard

Jackson Genovesi opened the betting with his standard sized 42,000 raise from the button and he was the only caller when Yorane Kerignard three-bet to 99,000 from the small blind.

The {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop saw Keirgnard keep up the aggression and make it 87,000 to play and Genovesi had no problem in making the call. The {9-Clubs} on the turn halted the run of red cards on the board and now Kerignard checked, but when Genovesi bet 182,000 Kerignard check-raised to 442,000. The dealer placed the {2-Clubs} onto the river and Kerignard moved all in.

"Wow! Wow! You are the sickest," said Genovesi before adding, "This might take a while. You know I have a straight right? Of course you do, you are too good. Maybe you have the {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for the flush? You re representing it well but that doesn't mean you have it."

Eventually Genovesi folded an showed {q-Hearts}{7-Hearts} fr the straight. Kerignard simply mucked his hand and started to stack his chips.
