Mathieu Choffardet opened to 375,000 from the cutoff. He was called by Aitor Cruz on the button and Gandalf in the small blind.
Both Gandalf and Choffardet checked the A?Q?8? flop, but Cruz didn't let them see a turn so easly so he bet 400,000. Choffardet was the only one to call.
Cruz fired a second barrel of 1,400,000 on the 4? turn with K?J? for a straight draw. He managed to make Choffardet fold A?10?, which was the best hand.
The final duel felt like a roller coaster last January at the Casino de Marrakech inside the Es Saadi Resort. After a two-and-a-half-hour-long heads-up battle where both players had opportunities to win, Max Deveson was finally crowned the champion of the 2024 WSOP Circuit Marrakech Main Event.
Deveson is now the proud owner of a WSOP Circuit ring and took home 2,150,000 MAD (approximately €200,000). Obviously exhausted and disappointed, Antoine Delorme finished in second place out of a field of 1,163 entrants, going home with 1,550,000 MAD (€143,000).
