Clement Hits the Rail After Series of Coolers
With the board reading 5?4?Q?K?J? and about 2,500,000 already in the middle, Kevin Clement checked and was faced with a 1,600,000 bet from Diogo Ferreira, sending Clement deep into the tank.
Eventually the clock was called and shortly afterwards Clement made the call. Ferreira tabled K?J? for two pair and Clement mucked his hand, leaving himself short-stacked.
Not long afterwards, Clement moved all in for his last 2,000,000 chips and was called by Luc Lafontaine who was slightly covered by Clement.
Luc Lafontaine: 9?9?
Kevin Clement: A?K?
The board ran out J?3?3?7?6? and Lafontaine received a full double up while Clement was left with just under two big blinds.
The very next hand, Clement moved all in again for his last 375,000 and was called once again by Lafontaine who this time had a covering stack to put Clement at risk.
Kevin Clement: Q?Q?
Luc Lafontaine: Q?J?
Clement seemed poised to double up but the 9?5?6? flop gave Lafontaine tons of equity in the form of a flush draw. The flush came in on the A? turn leaving Clement drawing dead to the 7? river. Lafontaine collected another decent pot while Clement's deep run came to an end.
