Etienne Archambeaud continues to fall from grace here at EPT Deauville after a recent tangle with Barbara Valeria Martinez.
The hand began with Martinez making it 1,050 under the gun and Archambeaud popping it up to 2,800 from the button.
Martinez called and checked the 

flop, only to check-raise it up to 7k once Archambeaud fired 3k at the pot.
Archambeaud folded and their table broke immediately following.

Martin Jacobson's main event journey has come to and end. Alexander Hering opened to 900 from the cut-off and the Swedish superstar three-bet jammed with ace-eight suited for 11,300 from the button.
It wasn't Hering he had to worry about though. Yury Kerzhapkin was sat behind in the big blind with ace-king and busted him.

Jon Spinks is at a new table with Arnuad Mattern and off to winning ways there. He opened from early position and was called in two spots en route to a 

flop.
His 2,200 c-bet was only called by Antonio Gonzalez Miranda one more seat along. Both players checked the
turn before Spinks led for 6,900 on
river. Miranda tank-folded.

Facing an 850-chip open, PokerStars.fr Qualifier Pierre Fehner bumped it up to 2,125.
However, fellow Frenchman Joseph Carlino was waiting in the wings with two red queens in the big blind and promptly shoved for 23,200 total.
The original raiser dumped his holdings, but Fehner made the quick call with...two black queens.
Two diamonds on the flop made Fehner look, but a black card on the turn ensured a chop.

Level: 7
Blinds: 250/500
Ante: 50
Just before the end of Level 6, Team PokerStars Pro Jonathan Duhamel busted.
The following hand after doubling an opponent, Duhamel tangled in another big pot. It started with him raising under the gun and finding two callers, the second being Pierre Canali. The flop came down 

and Duhamel's continuation bet was called by both of his opponents.
It was when the

for an open-ended straight draw and flush draw. Canali wasn't going anywhere with 
and his set held through the
river to secure the pot.
