C'est Fantastique, Petitjean!

From under the gun, Alexandra Petitjean raised to 350 before Joy Kenworthy snap-shoved for just over 2,100 from middle position. The action folded back around to Petitjean and she insta-called with {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}, flipping against the {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} of Kenworthy.

The flop of {7-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{3-Spades} put Petitjean further ahead, but despite both players making two pair on the turn of the repeat {3-Clubs}, Petitjean held when the {6-Clubs} bricked out on the river, sending Kenworthy to the rail.
