Mark Helou raised to 65,000 under the gun and received three callers - Jon Kyte in middle position, Grigorii Rodin in the cutoff, and big blind Dejan Jakovljevic.

The flop came 5♦3♣8♦ and Helou bet 100,000. Kyte and Rodin called, while Jakovljevic folded.

The A♦ fell on the turn and action checked to Rodin who bet 245,000. Helou called and Kyte folded.

Both players checked the 4♦ river and Helou turned over A♠Q♥ for top pair. Rodin showed 7♣6♣ and the dealer was about to push the pot to Helou until Rodin pointed out he had rivered a straight.

"Very lucky guy," Kyte said.

"I knew he had nothing on the turn," Helou replied.

MaximeTaldir

Niveau 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On the first hand after the restart, Jon Kyte opened to 65,000 from under the gun, and Serge Chechin defended from the big blind.

Kyte continued with a bet of 80,000 on the 6♠3♦7♠ flop and Chechin check-called.

Chechin checked again on the turn Q♦, so Kyte fired a second barrel of 220,000. Chechin snap-called, then checked in the dark before the dealer revealed the 3♠ on the river.

Kyte prepared a pile worth 810,000 and pushed it in front of him, putting Chechin into the tank. The French player decided to keep his chips and to fold.
