International Heads Up France Day 2

Edit 19h56: ELIMINATION OF KOEN DE BAKKER

After two hours of a fierce battle against English Richard Greco, Koen de Bakker has been eliminated for a very good fourth place, as the field was very strong in these International French Head's Up.

His opponent played lots of small pots and there were a few big meetings that explained the length of this face to face.

The beginning of the battle turned in favor of Richard Greco and slowly but surely, Koen has seen the amount of his chips down.

Then, after a raise of Koen, his opponent bet for the totality of Koen's stack. Koen is forced to call with A6, for a A9 for his opponent. Fortunately for our Netherland player, he will find his 6 on the turn that allows him to win the pot and regain his original stack.

On a second major confrontation, Richard Greco bet and Koen decided to re-raise with 78 ... call by his opponent.

Then the flop is Q84 and Koen CBET and its opponent re-raise at 6k ... Koen call.

The turn was a K and both checked.

The river is an Ace and both checked again.

His opponent showed Ad 6d and wins the pot.

From that moment, Koen has been in a difficult position with 7BB he finds himself forced to push all'in with Q3, call by the K2 of his opponent.

The board TJK / 6 / Q will not help our players who finished in a very nice 4th place with a winning of 15.360 €.

We meet tomorrow for further tourney of this Team Everest Poker Open 2010 Evian where our players Live The Dream, Fabien Perrot and Julien Claudepierre attend the side event at 1000 € before the Main Event which starts on Saturday.
