Day 3 Starting Shortly

MacPhee last night - short-stacked but happy
MacPhee last night - short-stacked but happy
We weren't expecting to at the start of the day, but as it turned out we absolutely smashed the bubble yesterday. 116 players return to the Salles des Etoiles this morning, well inside the money, but there is a whole world of difference between the €15,000 they're guaranteed right now and the potentially life-changing (largely depending on who it goes to, we suspect) €1,700,000 up for grabs for first place.

Nick Schulman is our chip daddy right now after an impressive late surge, but David Sesso, Jean Francois Talbot, Matt Perrins and Sami "LarLuzak" Kelopuro are all hot on his heels, and with the remaining field including Chris Moneymaker, Neil Channing, Vicky Coren and Kevin MacPhee, pole position in the chip counts now does not necessarily guarantee pole position at the end of the day.

Play is due to start in around 25 minutes, so don't be navigating away from this page.

Stefano Di Gennaro, RIP

[user46392]
[user46392]
A rather sombre start to the day, as TD Thomas Kremser called for a minute's silence in remembrance of Stefano di Gennaro, an Italian player who played in San Remo last week and sadly died yesterday in a motorbike accident. Condolences to his family.

Dervaux Gets Kay-O'ed

[user76023]
[user76023]
Nicolas Dervaux pushed all-in for 54,500 preflop and Matthew Kay tanked behind him before also moving all-in.

Dervaux: {3-Spades} {3-Hearts}
Kay: {7-Spades} {7-Hearts}

The {A-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {6-Spades} flop looked to have saved the Frenchman but after a {9-Spades} turn, the ugly (for Dervaux at least) {7-Diamonds} came on the river to eliminate him.

Guetting Paid

[user46392]
[user46392]
Teddy Sheringham open-shoved and Anthony Guetti called all in with an even shorter stack. Everyone else folded, and they were on their backs.

Sheringham: {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts}
Guetti: {J-?} {J-?}

Board: {7-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {6-Diamonds}

Guetti doubled to 125,000, while Sheringham found himself even shorter on just 80,000.
