French Civil War

Vincent Dalet raised from the button, and the ensuing action with small blind Ilan Rouah left both men with all of their chips piled in the middle, stacks too similar for us to eyeball confidently. Without further ado, let's see the cards:

Dalet: {J-Spades} {J-Hearts}
Rouah: {Q-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}

The flop was a good one if your name is Ilan Rouah. The dealer spread {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}, and one of the Frenchmen let out a beastly roar and a big fist pump as he'd flopped the lead in a big way. The other Frenchman sat quietly by as the dealer turned the {8-Spades} and rivered the {3-Hearts}, both useless to his pocket jacks.

Rouah has stormed back into contention here after a full level of slip-sliding down the score sheet (like an eel or something). He's right at 200,000 now, while Dalet is left with just a puny 24,000 with which to try and mount a comeback.
