for top two, and it was good enough to earn him the pot. He's up to about 37,000 at the moment, and we've just realized he's sitting at a table with another gregarious Frenchman, Antonin Teisseire. Roy and Teisseire have shared the felt before -- most notably at the 2008 Partouche Poker Tour Main Event where they both made the final table.

This seemed very exciting, but all three checked the
flop, and come the 
turn it checked to Gurtovoy, who bet 650. Cao made the call and they moved, heads-up, on to the 
river, which both players checked again. There followed a brief argument over who should turn their cards over first, and in the end Cao turned over

Just now, Korchia got the rest of Lounis' chips in sick fashion. Three players were involved in a preflop raising war, but the monkey in the middle was smart enough to duck out and let Korchia and Lounis go at it once again. With all of the chips in the middle of the table, the cards were on their backs:

. Alain Roy and Lucien Berrebi checked, and the third player stuck out a bet of 2,600. The fourth player in the hand made the call, and Roy did as well. When it came back to Berrebi, though, he announced a check-raise to 17,000. That was enough to fold the initial bettor, but Mr. #4 called all in for his last 12,500 chips. Roy folded away too, showing

The flop brought
and heavy action. After a check, Haik fired out a continuing bet of 3,100. That drew a raise to 8,625 for Kabrhel and sent Haik into the think tank. After a long pause, he moved all in, and Kabrhel instantly called all in to put himself at risk.Showdown
