Niveau 6 : 500/1,000, 250 ante

Daniel Alaei has emerged as the chip leader at his table, while Samuel Touil has been eliminated for the second time and won't be able to re-enter.

Phil Galfond then took on Alexander Schwartz, who dropped to a short stack early on but has since recovered. The draw was already complete, and Galfond bet 15,000. Schwartz moved all in, and that proved to force a fold from Galfond after some consideration.

Niveau 5 : 400/800, 200 ante
