After a series of preflop reraises, Marvin Rettenmaier found himself all in holding {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. The German pro was in an unfamiliar position, however, as he was dominated by a Frenchman.

Maxime Conte called with the {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}, and with the overpair the French pro was way out in front.

The final board rolled out {6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, and despite every card resembling an eight finding the felt, Conte's tens held up for the double.
