Impressive hero call by Maxime Canevet
On table 23 the two chipleaders are Flaviano Cammisuli and Florian Guimond, but now Maxime Canevet lays claim to the chip lead.
He just took down a nice pot with an impressive call against Agostino Ascone.
The hand was on the river with the board reading 7♥ Q♠ T♣ Q♦ K♠ and 500k in the middle.
After Maxime Canevet checked, Agostino bet 525k – slightly more than pot. Maxime thought a good two minutes and eventually called with A♦ 7♦ – a measly bottom pair. But his read was spot on as Ascone could only muster A♥ 9♥ for a stone cold bluff.
