Lesage Flushed by Volper
With about 35,000 in the pot and a board reading 
, Nikolay Volper and Christophe Lesage both checked to see the 
peel off on the river. Volper checked, but this time Lesage fired out 22,000, leaving himself just 18,000 behind. Volper, who is our chip leader, shrugged and made the call with a 
flush. Lesage just shook his head in disgust and mucked his hand.
