Shady Chouity Drops a Six
Gaetan Deneuve opened the pot with a raise, and Mark Shepherd three-bet shoved for 7,500. Nicolas Choutiy called all in for 3,700 from the big blind, and Deneuve went ahead and matched the bet with a chance at the double knockout. Cards up, gents.
Deneuve:
Shepherd:
Chouity:
The flop was clean for Chouity, still in the lead with his pair of sixes.
Turn: .
That'll do it. Chouity had locked up the double with a set, and now Shepherd needed to pair up to stave off elimination. He could not. The river is the last card of his day, the side pot going over to Deneuve to mitigate his losses.
It's a triple up for Chouity, though, up to 13,500 now.
