Carl Martel Eliminated in 8th Place

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Carl Martel

On a {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds} flop, and two checks in front of him, Pierre-Paul Paulin bet 12,500. Jean-Louis Cyr check-called and Carl Martel check-shoved all-in for 94,000. Paulin made the call, putting Martel at risk.

Martel: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Paulin: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Martel was ahead but Paulin had flopped the world with an open-ended straight flush draw. The {5-Spades} on the turn was a safe card for Martel, but the {8-Clubs} on the river gave Paulin a straight and the pot.
