No Battle Left

After one double up Philippe Rouas was still only on 1,350 when he pushed again. He found callers in two spots before the flop came down {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{7-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

.

The first player checked before the second one bet 2,500, forcing a fold. He then tabled {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

for a flopped set leaving Rouas' {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

in big trouble.

The turn {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

offered hope but the {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

sealed his fate. He quickly hurried off to sweat his player, Noah Schwartz, who is down to the final ten players in the $40,000 NLH event.
