Scemama Said Knock You Out
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Thomas Eychenne raised to 350,000 under the gun.
The action folded around to Jeremy Scemama in the big blind, who made the call.
When the flop came 6♥8♣5♦, Scemama slid his last 100,000-chip stack forward. Eychenne made the call.
Jeremy Scemama: A♠7♠
Thomas Eychenne: 9♠9♦
Scemama had an open-ended straight draw, while Eychenne had an overpair to the board and a gutshot straight draw.
The turn and river 6♦8♦ didn't change a thing, as Eychenne's nines were good enough for the knockout.
Eychenne is one of the leaders in the tournament with 18 bounty chips.
