Mathieu Choffardet opened to 375,000 from the cutoff. He was called by Aitor Cruz on the button and Gandalf in the small blind.
Both Gandalf and Choffardet checked the A♦Q♥8♥ flop, but Cruz didn't let them see a turn so easly so he bet 400,000. Choffardet was the only one to call.
Cruz fired a second barrel of 1,400,000 on the 4♦ turn with K♠J♣ for a straight draw. He managed to make Choffardet fold A♠10♠, which was the best hand.
The final duel felt like a roller coaster last January at the Casino de Marrakech inside the Es Saadi Resort. After a two-and-a-half-hour-long heads-up battle where both players had opportunities to win, Max Deveson was finally crowned the champion of the 2024 WSOP Circuit Marrakech Main Event.
Deveson is now the proud owner of a WSOP Circuit ring and took home 2,150,000 MAD (approximately €200,000). Obviously exhausted and disappointed, Antoine Delorme finished in second place out of a field of 1,163 entrants, going home with 1,550,000 MAD (€143,000).
