One Frenchman Eliminates Another
Level 19
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Stacks got into the middle preflop as Gilles Lamy was at risk for his remaining chips from the big blind, having gotten action from Mehdi Violleau who was in the hijack. The two pleasantly exchanged a few words in French upon tabling their hands.
Gilles Lamy: 
Mehdi Violleau: 
The flop came 
, leaving the landscape unchanged.
"Ten!" said Lamy, code-switching into English as the turn came 
"No ten!" joked Violleau, following suit before the river 
fell clean for him, fulfilling his wish and earning the knockout in the process.
