Lafleur Joins the Rail

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Sammy Lafleur moved all in for just under one million in chips, and the action folded to Renato Prado Valentim in the big blind, who called.

Sammy Lafleur: {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Renato Prado Valentim: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Lafleur seemed poised for a comeback after improving to trip kings on the {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop, but that soon vanished when the {10-Spades} appeared on the turn. The blank {9-Diamonds} on the river sealed Lafleur's fate, and he was eliminated.

"Would you have called if I shove?" Joseph Michael, in the small blind, asked while Valentim raked in the pot, and he nodded back to Michael.
