Antoine Saout raised preflop, and two callers came along for the ride.

Flop: {8-Spades}

First to act, Jamel Maistriaux fired out 4,700. The next player got out of the way, and Saout flatted.

Turn: {6-Spades}

Maistriaux carefully bet 7,800, and after a moment of consideration, Saout called again.

River: {K-Diamonds}

Maistriaux checked as soon as the dealer burned and turned. Saout took a stab at the pot to the tune of 10,700. Maistriaux made the call, and as soon as he slid out the chips, Saout shook his head and tossed his cards into the muck. With the pot already in front of him, Maistriaux showed {A-Clubs}

for a busted nut flush draw and second pair.

The hand left Saout with 51,000 and gave Maistriaux a boost in his quest to near the top of the chip counts.
