Lhuillier Doubles on First Hand of the Day
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Brek Schutten raised to 50,000 in the cutoff and Jean Lhuillier three-bet to 215,000, leaving himself with just 5,000 back. Schutten then four-bet jammed and Lhuillier went into the tank, looking for a potential pay jump. The clock was eventually called and Lhuillier committed the rest of his stack.
Jean Lhuillier: A♥4♥
Brek Schutten: K♦Q♦
"That's a fun flop," said another player at the table as the dealer spread out A♦6♦K♣.
The turn landed the J♠ and the river fell the 4♣, earning Lhuillier the much-needed double up.
