The above phrase may be quite known from Southpark and is typically used when Kenny Hallaert gets eliminated in a tournament. It was the first event for the Belgian in quite some time after mostly focusing on being a tournament director in Namur. He lasted about 10 hands after just miss-click raising to 12,000 instead of making it 1,200, totally mixing up the colors of the chips.
Henry Szmelcer took advantage of that after raising to 400 and now moved all in. Hallaert called off for 21,000 with 
and the Australian obviously had pocket aces.

Laurent Polito has won the World Poker Tour National stop in Paris twice and Cannes once. The Frenchman won't be adding Brussels to that impressive list as of yet, as Polito just walked out of the tournament area. "Yeah, only two hands," he said and quickly headed downstairs.

After a raise to 700 and a call, Jerome Sgorrano as well as the player next to him called to head four-way to a flop of 
. No action followed until the 
turn where Brummelhuis bet 2,000 and called the small reraise of Sgorrano to 4,050. The river triggered a check of the Dutchman, Sgorrano moved all in and Brummelhuis called off.
The Dutchman mucked his cards when Sgorrano showed him pocket queens for a full house.

After a raise to 400 and three callers including Bernard de Breyne, the flop fell 
. A continuation bet of 800 and a call was met by a check-raise of de Breyne in the small blind to 2,525 and he was called by two opponents to see the 
turn. The 
river then had de Breyne fire 2,525 and one opponent call, who would muck his 
once the Belgian showed
