Matrige Bubbles Main Event
Niveau 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Boris Pesic opened the cutoff to 16,000. The button and small blind folded.
Sebastien Matrige, who had almost have his stack in the middle in big blind and ante, peeled his cards before placing his remaining 9,000 chips, into the pot.
Pesic called for 1,000 more. The two players turned over their cards as the cameras gathered.
Sebastien Matrige: A♦Q♦
Boris Pesic: 6♦6♠
The flop of 8♣8♥4♣ was clean for Pesic's pocket pair, and Matrige needed an ace or a queen to win.
The 2♣ meant that the remaining players were one card away from cashing in this record-breaking Main Event.
Matrige's fate was sealed on the 9♦ river. He tapped the table and bumped fists with his fellow table mates as he left the table.
