Welch Turns the Screws on Darcourt

Nothing is going right for Guillaume Darcourt since the players returned from the dinner break. His stack is under relentless attack from Jon Eaton and Ryan Welch. Welch checked and called a bet from Darcourt on a flop of {6-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. Both players checked when a big card, the {k-Clubs}, hit the turn. Things got even hairier on the {j-Hearts} river. Welch checked again, inducing a bet of 150,000 from Darcourt. Welch then check-raised to a total of 475,000. Darcourt gave the matter some thought but ultimately released his hand.

Darcourt's stack has fallen all the way to 1.2 million.
