[Removed:133] and Claudio Renaldi just played heads-up for perhaps the biggest pot of the tournament thus far.

We caught up to the hand with the board showing {7-Hearts}

. Cournut had checked to Renaldi who moved all in for approximately 405,000; there was at least 600,000 already in the pot.

Cournut tanked and asked a few questions, presumably in French, before eventually sliding two stacks of pink chips across the betting line signaling a call.

Renaldi then turned over two red kings -- the {K-Hearts}

giving him the nut flush -- and Cournut was devastated. He sat motionless in his chair and stared across the table as Renaldi piled up his newfound 1.5 million in chips.

Cournut mucked his cards and was left with just over 600,000 in chips.
