Chuc Hoang was getting out of his chair and Jordan Dumas was scooping in a sizeable pot, Dumas' 7♣7♠ overcoming Hoang's K♣K♠ on 9♥7♦4♣2♣Q♥, Dumas flopping a set of sevens.
Ludovic Periaux opened to 4,000 under the gun and received calls from Samuel Fournier, who has already collected a trophy this week, and Philippe Merckx, both in middle position.
On the 7♦Q♠4♥ flop, Periaux continued with a bet of 4,000, which only Fournier called.
The A♣ turn slowed down the action and was checked by both players.
The 6♥ river completed the board and Periaux again checked. Fournier thought his next move over before firing out an overbet of 36,000, leading to a prompt fold from Periaux.
Axel Santoni opened 4,000 from the button and was called by the small blind, but David Spir in the big blind three-bet to 16,000. Santoni was the only one to call.
On a board of 10♠K♦2♣4♠, Spir continued for 17,000, then fired a second barrel of 27,000.
Santoni called on the flop, but gave up on the turn.
