Johann Greboval raised to 11,000 from the hijack, receiving a call from the button.
The 2♠10♥6♦ flop checked through to the 6♥ on the turn. Greboval elected to check-call a bet of 11,000 from his opponent.
The J♥ river saw Greboval play out of flow, leading for 16,000. The button made a quick call. Greboval tabled 10♠9♣ for second pair; good enough to lay claim to this pot.
Alexandre Domenach under the gun opened to 10,000 and was called by both Eric Roche in the cutoff and Hugues Mazerolle in the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 2♦Q♣10♠ and Domenach continued for 17,000. Roche was the only one to call.
On the K♠ turn, Domenach fired a second barrel of 35,000 and was called. So on the 7♥, he shoved for 80,000.
Roche didn't wait to call, but he lost the pot as Domenach had A♦J♦ to double up.
Dany Leger raised to 12,000 from under the gun, the cutoff three-bet to 24,000 and Leger responded with a four-bet to 62,000. The cutoff moved all in and Leger snap-called.
Cutoff: K♣K♥ 
Dany Leger: A♣A♦
Leger had his opponent crushed and the J♥3♣6♠7♦J♠ flop couldn't save him.
Niveau: 17
Blinds: 2,500/5,000
Ante: 5,000
Yoann Rosa raised to 8,000 from the button and the big blind three-bet to 32,000. Rosa called.
The big blind continued for 16,000 on the 10♦5♦4♣ flop and Rosa refused to budge.
The 6♣ turn slowed down the big blind with a check. Rosa moved all in for 80,000 and the big blind tanked for several minutes before making the call.
Yoann Rosa: A♠A♥
Big Blind: A♣K♥
Rosa had his opponent drawing dead. The 7♥ changed nothing and Rosa found a big double.

The player under the gun raised to 8,000, Christos Symeonidis called in the hijack, as did the big blind.
The Q♦8♣10♣ flop checked through to the 9♦ on the turn. The action checked to Symeonidis, who bet out 13,000. Only the original raiser called.
The 5♠ river saw a repeat of the action, this time Symeonidis sized up to 25,000. Symenidis tabled Q♥J♥ for straight, winning him this pot.
Francky Magliocco raised to 10,000 from the button and was only called by Sunny Cocquempot in the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of K♦A♥3♦, and Magliocco continued for 15,000. Cocquempot check-called, then check-called again when Magliocco fired a second barrel of 22,000.
Both players quickly checked the 6♠ river, and Cocquempot turned over K♥9♠. "All my live..." Magliocco said while sending the A♠ into the muck.
Niveau: 16
Blinds: 2,000/4,000

There are poker ambassador announcements, and then there are poker ambassador announcements.
Danish poker legend Gus Hansen — who needs no introduction — has joined Team Winamax as their latest sponsored pro in a surprise move from the site that also features Adrian Mateos, Mustapha Kanit and Davidi Kitai.
"It's the best team around," said Gus Hansen, of his new teammates.
Known for his ultra-aggressive style of play which revolutionized poker in the mid-2000s, Hansen has lost none of his motivation despite a reduced presence on the live circuit in recent years.
