The 200k man
Philippe Boucher has become the first player at EPT Deauville to break the 200,000-chip barrier.
He opened the pot from mid position and was called in one spot before the colourful character of Johan Guilbert squeezed to 2,875 from the cut-off. Boucher stared him down and put in a chunky four-bet to 8,000. The player sandwiched between them folded and Guilbert called.
The flop was revealed as 
and both players checked. The turn was dealt as 
and Boucher bet 8,000.
Guilbert sat there behind the ski goggles he's wearing and tanked. Sometimes a man needs to free himself and think without the restraint of goggles though. Guilbert must've agreed and he took them off to reveal a pair of sunglasses underneath! Time was passing by and Guilbert must've known that as he does wear two watches. Eventually he open-folded 
and said to himself, "Good fold, Johan!"
