Rouquet Soars in Ranks
Niveau 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Arriving on a completed board of J♥Q♣4♠A♦3♦, Carlos Serrano pushed all his chips in the middle from the small blind, putting his opponent Julien Rouquet in the big blind at risk.
Rouquet was playing a stack of 178,000, which meant that Serrano's bet was almost twice the size of the 95,000 pot.
Rouquet spent several time banks but eventually found the call for his tournament life. Serrano sheepishly turned over 10♣9♦ for a missed straight draw. Elated, Rouquet tabled Q♥J♠ as he was awarded the big pot.
