Jean Gaspard is having a rough level despite the knockout of James Hughes, and his once-towering stack has been cut in half since the break.

In the most recent pot, Ian O’Hara opened the button to 11,000, and Gaspard defended his big blind. The flop came Jd4d2s. Gaspard checked, O’Hara continued for 9,000, and O’Hara check-raised to 25,000. O’Hara moved all in for 133,500, and Gaspard called to put him at risk.

O’Hara: Jh9s
Gaspard: Jc3c

The turn was the Qd and the river the 7d, and O’Hara’s kicker played to earn him the double-up.

Ian O’Hara – 295,000 (59 bb)
Jean Gaspard – 310,000 (62 bb)
