Hands #98-102: Reiji Kono Doubles Through Matthieu Lamagnere

Hand #98: Charlie Chiu opens to 400,000 in the cutoff and Jose Catela three-bet jams for 1,750,000 to force a reluctant fold, as Chiu loses the raising chips and his last time bank.

Hand #99: Matthieu Lamagnere raises to 500,000 in the small blind, earning a call from Bien Mai in the big blind. On the flop, Lamagnere check-folds to a bet worth 400,000.

Hand #100: Catela opens to 400,000 and folds when Lamagnere jams from one seat over.

Hand #101: Chiu jams out of the small blind and Reiji Kono forfeits the big blind and big blind ante.

Hand #102: Lamagnere makes it 400,000 to go from under the gun and Kono jams for 2,800,000 in the small blind. One time bank later, Lamagnere sigh-calls.
