Yauheni Rudzianok, on the button, found himself all in and at risk for his effective stack of 36,000 against Jean-Charles Remaud, in the big blind.
Yauheni Rudzianok: A♠K♠ 
Jean-Charles Remaud: A♥9♣
Rudzianok was in a commanding lead and the 5♣A♦6♥ flop confirmed this. The K♦ turn had Remaud drawing dead and the 2♠ river confirmed Rudzianok's double up.
On a flop of 9♥3♥3♦, Abel Pruchon under the gun bet 2,000 and he was called by Alexandre Vollet in the big blind.
Both players quickly checked the 2♦ turn, then on the 6♥ river, Vollet checked again.
Pruchon decided to check back but lost the pot against Volley's two pair with J♣9♠.
The pot had grown to approximately 85,000 with two players looking at a full board of 2♥K♠7♥J♠6♥.
Riccardo De Rubeis, in the big blind, bet enough to put Anton Martinez, who was under the gun, all in for his effective stack of 31,000. Martinnez snap-called.
Anton Martinez: J♥10♥
Riccardo De Rubeis: K♦2♣
De Rubeis may have held two pair, but Martinez was out in front with his rivered flush, earning him the full double up.
Heads-up on a flop of 5♦8♣J♠, Ilya Smolko under the gun bet 4,000 and one of the chip leaders so far Anton Goettler check-called from the big blind.
On the A♥ turn, Smolko fired a second barrel of 12,000. But this bet was too much for Goettler, who folded.
Niveau: 12
Blinds: 1,000/2,000
Ante: 2,000
Petr Hruzek raised to 3,200 from the button and Fabrice Ferrando defended in the big blind.
The Q♥K♦9♠ flop saw Farrando check-call a bet of 4,200 from Hruzek.
The 7♠ turn prompted a second check from Farrando. Hruzek sized up to 14,000 and Farrando was forced to fold.
Guillaume Papin raised to 3,500 from the button, the small blind called and Victor Fryda squeezed to 14,000, from the big blind. Papin called and the small blind folded.
The A♠7♥Q♥ flop saw Fryda continue for 8,000, earning a quick fold from Papin. As Fryda raked in the pot, he slammed the A♦ on the table proving he had at least top pair.
Hugo Loustau rasied to 3,000 from the button, Michel Maugenet three-bet jammed for 18,300 from the small blind and Loustau elected to make the call.
Michel Maugenet: K♠K♦
Hugo Loustau: Q♣10♣
Maugenet was in a commanding lead, however, the 10♦2♦2♥ flop gave Loustau some hope. The 3♠ turn and 9♠ river changed nothing and Maugenet doubled up by virtue of his premium pocket pair.
Niveau: 11
Blinds: 800/1,600
Ante: 1,600
