Dupre Hopes For Easier Day
Niveau 2
: 125/250, 250 ante
Marvin Dupre is a French singer who competed on the television programe 'The Voice' in 2017. He was in the field yesterday, but is now back in action on Day 1c.
"I'm pretty good," he said. "It's my first time here and I'm really happy to be here."
Dupre was in action earlier this year at the Winamax SISMIX in Marrakech, but the atmosphere here in Dublin is decidedly different.
"The vibe is very good. It's lots of fun, but yesterday was pretty hard. I was on a table with Guillaume Diaz and Romain Lewis. It was complicated. But it's ok!"
In this hand a player opened to 575 and Dupre three-bet to 1,575. His opponent called. The flop came 
and the initial raiser check-folded to a continuation bet of 1,025 and open-folded 
.
