Stefan Fuchs' Queens

[user66118]

Our intentions today were to play down to 24 players or until the end of this current level, whichever came first. As it turns out, the two events arrived at precisely the same time as our 25th player was eliminated on the final hand of the night.

The preflop action isn't 100% clear thanks to the great crowd of spectators and media who had packed themselves around the perimeter of the table. What we do know is that Stefan Fuchs ended up all in with {Q-Spades}

in multi-way preflop raising action. Hugo Lemaire was the man who put Fuchs to the test, and with good reason; he tabled {A-Spades}

, and Fuchs had one foot out the door as the staff paused the clock to signal the end of the night regardless of the outcome.

As odds would have it, the aces would hold on a board of {9-Diamonds}
