Geilich From the Brink

Level 29
: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

After getting his aces cracked and doubling up Jean Fontaine shortly after, Ludovic Geilich was left with just 465,000. He posted the big blind ante and defended against a raise from Jerome L'Hostis, which left him with just 140,000.
On the flop, Geilich took his time before checking and calling all in, in order to snatch a payjump. The called clock prevented that from happening as no other players busted.

Jerome L'Hostis:
It was nearly over for Geilich but the turn and
river improved him to a flush, giving him a lifeline.
