Clemencon Drops the Guillotine on Ramdin to Double

Level 24
Tristan Clemencon (Day 2) Of France Slices Victor Ramdin's Stack
Tristan Clemencon (Day 2) Of France Slices Victor Ramdin's Stack

Hold'em:

Victor Ramdin made it 40,000 to go before the flop and Tristan Clemencon three-bet to 60,000. Ramdin decided to four-bet, making it 80,000 to go and the Frenchman threw his last chips into the pot.

Showdown:

Clemencon: {10-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Ramdin: {Q-Clubs}{8-Spades}

Clemencon would need to come from behind in order to survive his all-in confrontation.

The flop rolled out {J-Spades}{6-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and Clemencon had paired his six, but was still trailing the paired eight of Ramdin. The turn card brought the {9-Spades} and Clemencon picked up an open-ended straight draw, meaning he could now catch a queen, a seven, or a six for the double up. Pairing his ten would be no good as this would give Ramdin a straight.

River: {Q-Spades}

Ramdin's second pair gave the Frenchman a queen-high straight and Clemencon doubled up to approximately 260,000 in chips, while Ramdin fell to 240,000.
