Nível 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Clement Richez raised from under the gun to 1,600,000, and Alec Torelli three-bet to 4,200,000 from the button. Action folded back around to Richez who moved all in for his remaining 13,900,000 stack.

Torelli asked for a count and commented to the table, "I don't think I am folding but I want to just check." After the dealer confirmed Richez stack, Torelli made the call.

Clement Richez: Q♥Q♦ All in
Alec Torelli: K♦J♠

Richez was looking to hold and the A♦A♥4♦ flop kept him ahead. The 3♦ turn brought in the diamond flush draw for both, but Torelli would have been ahead with the king.

Richez held on the 3♠ river and saw the double up, moving Torelli out of the chip lead.

Action was checked by both players down to the river which showed 8♠9♥10♣4♥Q♣. From the button, Adam Owen made a pot-sized pot of 5,500,000.

In the big blind, Alec Torelli considered it for a while. "What are you doing here? Something like king-five? Are you just ****ing around?" he asked Owen.

After a few more moments he called. Owen showed the A♦J♦ for the straight.

"Nice bet, buddy," said Torelli as he sent the chips to Owen.
