Two monster stacks have emerged lately. Laurent Polito has enjoyed a fantastic few level and has spun his stack up to close to 400,000.
We arrived at the table of Stephan Ouzilou however to see him scooping another pot and posing for a photograph with his arms aloft in triumph. He looks to be the first player to break the 400,000 barrier and his grin was as wide as his stack is high.
Bruno Soutavong opened from early position for 5,000 and the player next to him moved all in for 16,000. A couple of players looked like they were interested but the action eventually folded back round to Soutavong. His stack has taken a few hits today but he remains willing to gamble in these spots, especially when his stack is not at risk, and threw in the calling chips.
Soutavong flipped over his without a care in the world and the all in player proudly showed his . He would be thumoing the table in anger however when the flop of gave him hope and then snatched it away to give Soutavong two pair. The turn and river produced a full house. The flash of anger was gone almost immediately and he shook Soutavong’s hand before leaving.
