LeFrancois and Youngblood Winning Showdown's

[user169505]

Pascal LeFrancois announced himself on the world poker scene after winning the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Event #8: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em for $568,974. Then a few days later LeFrancois finished 11th in the Main Event itself where he secured another $635,011. So it goes without saying that LeFrancois understands the key ingredients to get through a large field. We are pretty sure that one of those key ingredients is luck, and here is LeFrancois grabbing a piece of it.

Le Francois moved all-in holding {Q-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} and was called by a player holding {J-Clubs} {J-Spades} . The flop gave his opponent a set but did give LeFrancois a flush daw - {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} . When the {K-Diamonds} hit the turn, it was Le Francois's opponent who now needed lady luck to shine. The river {5-Hearts} didn't help either party and LeFrancois doubled up.

This is Andrew Youngblood's 9th WSOP cash and it could be his deepest yet. Youngblood has just eliminated an opponent {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts} v {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs} to take his total up to 240,000.
