Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Artus Gimenez jammed for 100,000 from under the gun. Russel Banzon in middle position called and John Juanda defended from the big blind.

Both Juanda and Banzon quickly checked a flop of 5♠5♥10♥ leading to the 6♣ turn. Juanda checked, Banzon bet 40,000 and Juanda folded.

Artus Gimenez: A♠7♦ All in
Russel Banzon: A♥6♠

Banzon hit two pair on the turn, leading to Gimenez's elimination after the 2♠ river.
