Rony Clubs Mallet, Pulverizes Peuriere
Olivier Mallet rode his short stack all day, only to run his into Damien Rony's . Aces weren't so lucky for Sam Chartier when Rony cracked them with kings, but in his hot little hands, they held up just fine. The board fell to eliminate Mallet.
But that wasn't enough carnage for him. A few minutes later, Rony took a stab at busting Christophe Peuriere. It was Rony's against Peuriere's . The flop gave Rony a gutshot. He didn't hit it on the turn or river, but his ace-high was good enough to add another scalp to his belt. He's up to 445,000.
