A loud commotion was heard coming from table #63. Sylvain Siebert had moved all in before the flop for 64,000 in a blind versus blind battle and Dan Stavila put him at risk.

Siebert is caught making a move as Stavila is far ahead with his queens. The flop comes Heart 8Club JSpade A to give Siebert a pair, while the turn is the Diamond 2 to improve him to two pair. The Club 7 falls on the river and Siebert earns a miracle double up.

“You deserve to win that one,” Stavila says, still smiling despite the bad beat.

“This will make headlines. The no-fear strategy,” a tablemate tells Siebert.
