French Civil War
Michal Maryska opened the pot with a raise, and Michel Abecassis made a three-bet in position. Nicolas Levi had about 35,000 chips left, and he squeezed all in over the top of both men, folding Maryska quickly. Abecassis made the call for about half his stack, though, and the news was not good once he saw the hand he'd called down.
Showdown
Abecassis: 
Levi: 
There was no funny stuff on the 
board, and the two Frenchmen at the table have essentially traded stacks. Levi comes out ahead in that encounter, doubling up to about 75,000. As you can see from the trend, though, that's still down a bit from his Day 2 starting stack.

Elder, Pezzin Tangle
From middle position, Morten Erlandsen raised to 2,000, and Pat Pezzin three-bet to 5,500 next door. Over on the button, Rupert Elder came in from the cold with a four-bet to 12,000 total. That folded Erlandsen, but Pezzin made the call to proceed.
The dealer spread out 
, and Pezzin knocked the table. Elder took pause, then continued out with a small bet of 9,000. Pezzin flatted, and the two men checked through the 
turn. On the river, the 
cued Pezzin into action, and he led out with a bet of 16,000. Elder snap-called.
Pezzin showed up 
for the overpair to the board, and it was good. Elder's 
were not enough, and that loss knocks him back down around 63,000. It's an upward trend for Pezzin, though, and he's crossed a big milestone up to 111,000.

Seventy-Six Trombones
Level 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Tallying up the numbers from the first level shows that no less than 76 players were sent back to their rooms early. And already, about a dozen have fallen during this second level, dropping us down to 320 remaining players.
Baumstein Eliminated with Brutal River
We arrived at the table to witness a pretty big pot between Garri Tevosov and Scott Baumstein on the flop of 
. Tevosov fired 17,600 into the pot of about 25,000 and Baumstein called to see the turn.
The turn was the and Tevosov bet again, this time wagering 25,600 with a tad over 56,000 behind. Baumstein raised all in for 62,400. Tevosov looked very incomfortable with the shove and tanked for a bit. Eventually, he made the call.
Baumstein asked Tevosov if he had two kings before he tabled the . Tevosov shook his head and tabled the 
for just a straight draw.
"I've got a bad feeling," said Baumstein as he stood from his chair.
The river smacked the board with the and Tevosov smacked his straight. Baumstein threw his hands up in the air and began ranting about how bad the play was by Tevosov. He then collected his things, but didn't quite leave the area just yet. Baumstein spent a minute or two pacing back and forth next to the table, mumbling to himself about the hand.
"That's so bad, you play so bad," he was heard saying. "I mean, you didn't even know what to do when I shoved, that's so bad!"
Baumstein then made his way back around the table and in the direction of Tevosov's seat. When he breezed by, he made sure to toss out a few more comments about how bad he thought the play was from Tevosov. He then made his way through a few tables as if he was looking for someone to tell his story to. In the end, Baumstein slowly strolled out of the tournament room with a very empty look on his face.

Panyak Attack
We picked up a heads-up pot on the turn as the board showed 
. The pot was heads-up, and Melanie Weisner was leading the betting. She put out 5,800 into a pot of about 8,000, and Maxim Panyak check-called instantly.
That led them to the 
river, and Panyak knocked the table again. Weisner studied, then made a final bet of 15,100. Panyak only had about 22,000 chips in front of him, and this time he took pause for about 45 seconds before splashing the call into the pot.
Weisner showed up 
, and it was good. A frustrated Panyak tabled his inferior 
, and he was left with just 7,600 after running up against the lady with the better ace.
Panyak did manage a double on the very next hand, so he's not going anywhere just yet. He got he last 7,500 in with 
against Vinny Pahuja's 
. The board ran out a dramatic 
, and Panyak sat back down to play on with about 17,500 chips.
