Level 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Carl Martel opened to 9,000 and received calls from Pierre-Paul Paulin in the cutoff, Jean-Louis Cyr in the small blind, and Marc-Etienne McLaughlin in the big blind.
The four players saw a 
flop. The first three players checked to Paulin, who fired a bet of 14,500. Action folded to McLaughlin who check-raised to 41,000. Paulin made the call and the 
fell on the turn.
First to act, McLaughlin slid out a bet worth 50,000, and after some deliberation, Paulin tossed his cards into the muck, relinquishing the chip lead along with it.
