Ludovic Lacay raised, and then pushed to a three-bet from Joe Cada. Cada made the call, and they were on their backs.
Lacay: 
Cada: 
Board: 
making the Frenchman a straight.
Lacay doubled to around 750,000. Cada giggled as he dropped to 500,000.
We got there just in time to see Giuliano Bendinelli go all in and Luigi Pignataro call.
Bendinelli: 
Pignataro: 
Board: 
Pignataro is at around a million.
Maurizio Sepede has doubled up with 
against Max Lykov's 
on a 
board. Sepede is at 175,000; Lykov's stack was barely dented, and is at 1.4 million.
Thomas Traboulsi has doubled up to 110,000, his pocket fives good against 
on a 
board.
"Grazie!" he told the dealer.
Gerardo Godinez Estrada, our sole remaining Mexican, opened to 25,000 in the cutoff and Andrew Teng made it 67,000 from the button. In the big blind, Kevin Vandersmissen shoved for 243,000, and Estrada called. Teng took a long time about folding but fold he did, and Vandersmissen and Estrada were soon chopping it up.
Vandersmissen: 
Estrada: 
Board: 
We didn't see Teng's hand, but it sounded as though he would have won had he called.
Fabrizio Cataldi got lucky after he pushed all-in from the small blind for 178,000 over Max Lykov's button raise to 25,000. Cataldi showed 
but he was dominated by the Russian Team PokerStars Pro's , the flop had other ideas and you could hear a quiet sigh come from Lykov as the board came 
for a double up. Lykov remains chip leader though.
Gianni Bonetto pushed all-in for his last 100,000 or so with and got called by another player's . The board came 
and we lost yet another player
Nicolas Yunis is trying his level best to reach Team Pokerstars Pro Max Lykov. He has just eliminated Gerasimo Deres and moved up to 1.3 million in the process. We didn't see the hand play out but we know Yunis held 
and the board was 
.
Carter Phillips has been in "uber-grindy" mode since calling the bluff with a slightly worse bluff but he is now back up to 300,000 fter he doubled up with 
against Nicolas Yunis' 
on a 
board. It's an impressive and patient comeback so far.
Kevin Vandersmissen has just run a bluff straight into the welcoming arms of Team Pokerstars Pro Joe Cada to put him up to 866,000. This is how it went down.
Vandersmissen raised to 20,000 from the cut-off and Cada three-bet to 48,000 from the small blind. Nobody else was interested in the hand so Vandersmissen decided to peel one off from position.
Flop:
Cada bet 47,000 and Vandersmissen decided to make the call.
Turn:
Cada checked to Vandersmissen who now decided to bet. It was for 82,000 and Cada called.
River: 
Cada had already checked before the river card had arrived. Vandersmissen had approx. 387,000 behind and Cada 310,000. The belgian bet 140,000 and Cada called.
Cada:
Vandersmissen:
Cada ~ 866,000
Vandersmissen ~ 247,000
