Talvard Loses All In Battle Then Wins Rollercoaster Hand

Mwarburton

Nível 24 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Antoine Talvard: A♥J♥

The board ran out 4♥K♦2♦Q♦5♥ to give Puczylowski two pair with his kings and queens. He claimed the double up and Talvard took a hit.

Antoine Talvard: K♣K♠

Talvard was well ahead against Salamov. In what would become a rollercoaster of a hand, the board ran out J♣A♣10♥8♣5♣. That gave Salamov a straight on the flop and it looked like Talvard was set to lose most of his chips.

However, the river completed Talvard's flush. He took down the pot and Salamov was eliminated from the tournament.
