Julien Robert sat in the big blind with and he saw Hassan Fares move all in for his last 670,000 from the big blind. Robert called after it folded around to him, only to see Fares open up .
It was gonna be very tough for Robert to win the hand after the flop came down on the board. The turn left him drawing dead and the river was unnecessary.
Fares is back in the game with about 20 big blinds.

The pace of play is quite slow at the final table and they have plenty of time to think about their decision with levels being 75-minutes long. The average stack is about 30 big blinds at the moment, but most of the chips stand in front of ex-premier league footballer Jimmy Kebe.
Julien Robert raised to 175,000 from the under-the-gun position and it folded to Isabel Baltazar on the button. She moved her last 515,000 to the middle and Robert called.

The board fell and Baltazar secured a double up.
Jimmy Kebe added that all Baltazar does is shove all in and double up and he got a laugh from the table.
