Eychenne Doubles Through Hernon
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Around 200,000 chips had flown into the middle preflop between Joseph Hernon and Thomas Eychenne, which brought around a flop of 6?5?A?. Hernon checked out of turn, then Eychenne bet 20,000 — around half of his remaining stack. Hernon called.
The A? on the turn paired the board, and Eychenne bet his last 21,000. Hernon took a while, but eventually made the call.
Thomas Eychenne: A?K? 
Joseph Hernon: 10?10?
Hernon needed to find a ten on the river to snatch the pot away but the 9? river wasn't what he needed, and Eychenne was awarded the pot with trip aces.
