Loqmane Locks It Up

Frenchman
Frenchman
Gabor Szollosy and Thierry Loqmane limped in, and both players called when Mark Naalden shoved from the small blind for 2,100.

They saw a {2-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {A-Hearts} flop, and Loqmane bet pot -- 7,200. Szollosy moved in for a total of 8,700, Loqmane called, and it was a massive three-way showdown.

Loqmane: {7-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds} for a set
Szollosy: {10-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} for the nut flush draw
Naalden: {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {4-Hearts} for a suddenly not very good hand

"Allez!" shouted Loqmane.

Turn: {2-Spades}

River: {J-Diamonds}

Loqmane's full house won the lot, and Naalden and Szollosy made their exits. "Always the Frenchman," sighed another player at the table. "Yes," said a cheerful Loqmane, "Frenchmen are lucky bastards."

This particular Frenchman is up to around 40,000.
