Huge Stack for Hugo
Level 5
: 150/300, 25 ante
Hugo Lemaire has enjoyed a rather nice bump up the chip counts - he's at around 70,000 now.
Lemaire opened from the cutoff and found himself facing a reraise from the gentleman in the big blind. After a short pause for consideration, Lemaire made the call.
They saw a flop and the big blind bet out 2,825. Lemaire called, though, and Mr. Big Blind merely check-called Lemaire's suspiciously small 1,575 bet on the turn, and then rather more pot-appropriate 7,000 on the river. However, Mr. Big Blind would soon be pulling faces and mucking his hand, reduced to just 6,000, as Lemaire flipped for the Broadway straight.
