Brian Kim raised to 2,500,000 in the hijack and Jason James called in the big blind. On the K♦8♥2♠ flop, Kim continued for 1,300,000 and James check-folded.

On the next deal, Foxen raised to 2,4000,000 in early position and won the pot as she received no callers.

It was then Serock's turn to open for 2,400,000 again, and once again no flop was dealt as the blinds and antes were tossed to Serrock.

Livello 38 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Short stack Diogo Coelho raised to 2,400,000 in the cutoff with A♦A♣ and Kristen Foxen defended her big blind after picking up K♦K♣. The 10♥A♠5♠ flop was checked by Foxen, after which Coelho bet 1,200,000 with top set.

Foxen called for the 8♥ to appear on the turn. Foxen checked, and Coelho bet 3,000,000 after some time in the tank. Foxen called to the 3♣ river, which she checked again.

After some more thinking time, Coelho pushed all in for his remaining 6,700,000 chips. Foxen folded fairly quickly, increasing Coelho's stack significantly.

Franchi Doubles in Battle of France

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 38 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Malcolm Franchi raised to 2,400,000 on the button and fellow countryman Malo Latinois three-bet to 9,000,000 in the small blind. It folded back to Franchi, who went deep into the tank. He eventually jammed for 15,100,000 and Latinois called.

Malcolm Franchi: 10♥10♦ All in
Malo Latinois: 5♦5♥

The dominating pair remained ahead on the A♣6♥2♥ but had to endure a sweat on the 4♦ turn, as Latinois now picked up a gutshot as well. However, the J♣ river was a blank and Franchi doubled to swap positions with Latinois.

Livello 38 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Joe Serock opened for 2,400,000 in the cutoff and took down the pot before showing A♣9♥.

The next hand, Diogo Coelho jammed all in for 13,000,000 in the small blind and was met with a fold from big blind Brian Kim.

Niklas Astedt then made it 2,500,000 to go in the cutoff. Brian Kim three-bet to 7,500,000 in the small blind and Astedt folded to the newly crowned chipleader.

Astedt then raised to 2,500,000 again, this time in the hijack. Brian Kim called on the button and so did Foxen in the big blind.

Foxen checked the 4♥4♠3♦ flop to Astedt, who bet 1,500,000. Kim called and so did Foxen. On the Q♦ turn, Astedt sized up to 6,500,000, slightly less than half of the pot.

This time, both of his opponents mucked their cards as the three-way pot was shipped to the Swede.

Livello 38 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Yegor Moroz raised to 2,500,000 from early position before Brian Kim three-bet to 6,500,000 from the next seat over. Action folded back to Moroz and he moved all in for 33,800,000 and was snap-called.

Yegor Moroz: J♠J♦ All in
Brian Kim: K♠K♦

The 9♣7♣9♦ flop kept the kings ahead as did the 4♣ turn. The Q♥ river was the last card that Moroz would see in the Main Event, as he bowed out in 15th place.

With the pot, Kim became the new chip leader.
