Rosser Jones opened to 600 in the cutoff and was called by Yannick Fraysse on the button, and the big blind.
On the A♥Q♦2♥ flop, action was checked to Jones, who slid out a bet of 600. Only Fraysse called.
The 2♠ rolled off on the turn and Jones continued with a bet of 1,200. Fraysse again called.
The A♠ river completed the runout, leading to a double-paired board. After some thought, Jones put out a bet of 6,800. After some consideration, Fraysse called.
Jones showed A♣J♠ for trip aces and Fraysse tapped the table and mucked his hand.
In a three-bet pot on 4♥K♣3♣, Mathieu Di Meglio in the blinds bet 2,700. He was called by Aziz Laib in early position, and by Thierry Giron in middle position.
The 9♥ came on the turn and Di Meglio decided to check. Laib took this opportunity to bet 16,600, and he made Giron fold.
Di Meglio looked at his cards, and he chose to fold J♠J♣ face up.

Nilson Da Silva opened to 1,100 from early position and action folded to Jerome Sgorrano on the button, who produced a three-bet to 3,000.
Action folded back to Da Silva, who pondered the spot before reaching for chips to produce a four-bet to 12,000, with Sgorrano almost simultaneously sending his hand into the muck.
On a flop of 5♣3♠Q♦, cards went on their backs with a player in the hijack at risk for 17,000 against Andre Stroe on the button.
Hijack: A♦A♥
Andre Stroe: A♠J♣
The player in the hijack couldn't dream of a better spot with aces. But the 10♠ came on the turn, followed by the K♦ river to give a runner-runner straight to Stroe and send the hijack player to the rail.
Around 37,000 was already in the middle on a completed board of 6♠K♠Q♠9♣5♥ in a hand between Sorawit Suriyakarn in the cutoff and Pierre Canova on the button.
Suriyakarn moved all in for 26,000, sending Canova deep into the tank. After around three minutes of pondering his options, eyeing his opponent the whole time, Canova eventually folded, tapping the table as his cards hit the muck.
