"Gamble so hard"

Chip leader Francisco Da Costa Santos just raised to 20,000 from the small blind, and Petteri Kalenius tried three-betting to 30,000 from the big. That didn't work out since you have to make at least double the raise in France. Since he had 50% of a raise invested he had to make it 40,000.

Santos wasn't happy, but eventually he called uttering the words, "I'm gonna gamble so hard."

The flop brought out {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Santos checked. Kalenius moved all in for just 46,000 chips and Santos started talking again.

"This is the most stupid play I have ever made. This is the worst hand I played all tournament," Santos said before he tossed his cards into the muck. Kalenius picked up some much needed chips but is still short.
