The tournament director, Thomas Kremser has just announced the famous Shuffle Up and deal.

The players start the tournament with 30,000 chips and the first level of blinds is 50/100.

Few minutes later of the begining of the tournament, Antoine is playing a very big pot.

The UTG player makes a limp and the UTG+1 too. Antoine Saout in position decides to bet 500 and the UTG player decides to reraise at 2000. The UTG+1 player folds and Antoine decides to pay.

Flop: Qd 10c 5d
The UTG player bets 1,500 and Antoine reraises him at 4,000.

The turn is a 2h that changes nothing.

The UTG player checks and Antoine decides to bet 8,000. His opponent pays.

The river is a Kc.
The UTG player checks again and Antoine that feels that his opponent has pocket aces, decides to make a 9,000 value bet.

After a short reflexion, the UTG player pays and Antoine shows 2 pairs Qs 10c and is very near to double up his stack!

His opponent has AA!
