Poirier Loses a Big Flip

Yohan Zaoui was all in preflop for around 300,000 against former chip leader Patrick Poirier.

Zaoui: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Poirier: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}

Poirier picked up a gutshot on the {4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop but the Frenchman Zaoui shook his head in disbelief at the {A-Hearts} turn, though he now had any five for a chop. The river was the {Q-Hearts} and Zaoui let out a shout of delight as he doubled to over 600,000. Poirier dropped below a million for the first time today.
