That's One Way to Get There...
Marc Bariller was down to about 62,000 when he shoved his before the flop. Unfortunately, he ran them right into Jean-Robert Bellande's .
There would be no ten on board for Bariller, but he found a way regardless. The flop was a big swing and a miss, but the turn gave him a myriad of straight and flush outs with one card to come.
River: !
'Bink' as they say in the parlance of our times. That's what the kids call a Royal Flush, and that saves Bariller from an eleventh-hour elimination. He's doubled his way up over 125,000, and that puts Bellande down around the same mark; we count him at 116,000 after that ugly board.
