Parpillon Among the Big Stacks

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

With around 60,000 in the pot, Julien Levieux gave up the pot on the {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{3-Spades}{a-Clubs}{4-Hearts} river as he checked behind against Remi Parpillon. The latter first tabled the {5-Hearts} followed by the {k-Diamonds} and Levieux shook his head and mucked the cards.

Table chat revealed that he apparently had jack-ten for a busted straight draw and Parpillon added more chips to join the current chip leaders towards the end of the late registration period.

Tsunamy

Christopher Migano Leal raised to 6,500 and "Tsunamy" then pushed for what appeared to be just shy of 58,000 from one seat over. Migano Leal mulled it over for a short while and then made the call with the far superior stack.

"Tsunamy": {a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Christopher Migano Leal: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The {j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades} board delivered the double to "Tsunamy" and Migano Leal gasped a short "joder" before passing over the chips.
