Sepiol Runs Into Balleur's Bigger Ace
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Gaetan Balleur raised to 20,000 in middle position and Daniel Sepiol moved all in for 250,000 on the button. Balleur tanked for a minute but eventually called to put Sepiol at risk.
Daniel Sepiol: A♣J♣
Gaetan Balleur: A♠Q♦
The A♦K♥6♦ flop gave both players top pair, but Balleur remained in the lead with his queen-kicker. The K♦ turn left open the possibility of a chop, but the 7♠ river was no help to Sepiol and he was sent to the rail.
