Francois Billard Takes It From Jeff Madsen on the River

Francois Billard raises to 375 and Jeff Madsen calls from the hijack. Harpreet Gill does the same from the cutoff, and after the button and blinds all folded, three players took a flop of .

Billard continues for 550, Madsen calls, and Gill gets out of the way to make it heads-up action to the  turn. Billard bets 1,400, Madsen calls, and the  completes the board on the river.

Billard fires again, this time 3,900, and Madsen reaches for some chips as if he’s going to raise. However, he must have thought better of it as he unexpectedly flicks his hand to the muck. Despite losing that hand, Madsen is still up from the starting stack.

Jeff Madsen – 40,000
Francois Billard – 35,000
