You Don't Know Jacques
Vincent Jacques looks to be our new chip leader with over 300,000 after he eliminated Jerome Bradpiece and won a decent side pot at the same time. There was an initial raise and Bradpiece had moved all in for about 35,000 behind. Jacques called from the big blind and the initial raiser called as well to see a flop where the OR bet 44,000, Jacques check-raised all in and his opponent tank-folded after some serious consideration.
Jacques flipped to Bradpiece's and the board bricked out for the Englishman as the French-Canadian, who finished second to Praz Bansi in a $1,500 event last year, jumps into the chip lead.
Coincidentally, Bansi himself has just been knocked out.
