Saout Busts Nakladal to Claim the Top Spot

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Antoine Saout Busts Jan Nakladal
Antoine Saout Busts Jan Nakladal

Jan Nakladal raised to 65,000 from under the gun and Antoine Saout three-bet to 205,000 from one seat over, which Nakladal called. On the {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop, Nakladal checked and called a bet worth 225,000 by Saout before checking again on the {2-Hearts} turn. Saout fired a second barrel worth 475,000 and Nakladal check-raised all in for more than a million, which Saout quickly called.

The camera crews rushed to the table to record the showdown, though Nakladal was already drawing dead.

Nakladal: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Saout: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}

A meaningless {A-Hearts} on the river gave the Czech trips aces and he headed to the rail. Brandon Meyers said, "Say something for the cameras," which saw Saout say just two words with a big grin on the face: "Running good."
