Choupeaux Shows Rockets
A player open-limped from the hijack and action folded to Victor Choupeaux, who raised to 40,000 on the button. The small blind confirmed the amount and announced a call and the limper came along as well, taking action three ways to the 
flop. The small blind led out for 65,000 and the limper folded. Choupeaux made the call and the turn was 
. The small blind checked and Choupeaux announced a bet of 90,000 before pushing forward the chips to match it.
Upon seeing the bet, the small blind agonizingly said he was going to make a big fold. He thought about it for another 15 seconds or so before letting his hand go. Upon the fold, Phil Hellmuth accused Choupeaux of having nothing, and Choupeaux happily turned over 
, telling Hellmuth that his read was a good one. After seeing it, the small blind alleged to have folded two queens.
