Guigon Takes From Legrand

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Four players saw a {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop appear and there was about 8,500 in the middle already. All four players checked on the flop to see the {7-Spades} turn card.

Big blind Bernard Guigon put in a bet of 3,800 and he was only called by Patrick Legrand in middle position. The other two players got out of the way and Guigon and Legrand saw the {8-Clubs} turn complete the board.

Guigon checked and Legrand checked after he took a couple of seconds to think about the decision. Guigon opened up {6-Spades}{6-Hearts} and his pocket pair won him the pot.

Kebe Versus Zerbib

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Pierre Zerbib raised from the under-the-gun position in the first hand after the break. The player in the big blind was not in his seat yet and the only one that called was Jimmy Kebe from the button.

The flop fell {10-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Zerbib checked to Kebe. Kebe took over the betting lead with a bet of 575. Zerbib check-raised to 1,500, only to see Kebe three-bet to 7,000.

Zerbib tanked for three minutes before letting go of his hand after sharing a few words with Kebe.
