Alexandre Blanc Out in 12th Place (CAD $33,080)

Lonnie Hallett raises from the cutoff to 100,000, Jonathan Jaffe calls from the button, and Alexandre Blanc (pictured above) moves all in from the small blind for 575,000. Hallett moves all in over the top, and Jaffe folds.

Blanc turns over AK, and he needs to improve to stay alive against Hallett’s QQ.

The board comes 75528, and the pocket queens hold up for Hallett to win the pot and eliminate Blanc from the tournament.
