Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Olivier Paris continued his ascent to the top of the counts after knocking out another player, and he briefly recapped the hand to PokerNews.

Paris was out of position and saw his bets of 12,000 and 18,000 on the flop and turn called by Panagiotis Mavritsakis for the final board to read 9♥6♥A♣8♠A♥.

Paris fired out 32,000 on the river and snap-called when his opponent jammed for around 60,000. Mavritsakis turned over 9x9x for nines full of aces but he was bested by Paris who had Ax6x for aces full of sixes.

Charles La Boissonniere was already all in from the button with a short stack as Oliver Huber and Sylwester Fortuna built a side pot heading to the turn on a board of 10♦3♣3♦5♦.

Huber then bet 14,000 from the small blind and Fortuna called in the cutoff. The river was the 9♦.

Huber bet another 25,000 and Fortuna folded this time. "Big bluff?" La Boissonniere said optimistically as he turned over A♠7♥.
