Ludovic Lacay may have lost some chips over the past half a level, but he certainly hasn't lost his aggressive nature.
He was just seen tossing in a stack of grey 5k chips in the middle on an 
board, which happened to be enough to cover his short-stacked heads-up opponent.
That opponent folded and before he had even finished stacking the chips from the pot, the maniacal Frenchman was at it again, making it 4k pre-flop and stealing the blinds and antes.

Martins Adeniya's table broke and the removal men were called in to help him move his chips over to the other side of the room. He wasn't at his new table long before he battled, and was bluffed by Pierre Calamusa. We only got there on the river of a 
board where Adeniya was facing a 16,700 bet. He tank-folded and was shown 
by Calamusa.
Toby Lewis is having no such problems. His latest Tweet read: "Called off 15bb and 12bb reshove over my open with AQo. Both have AK guess... Loads of Q's left in the deck :) 380k #eptfrancais."

Bruno "Kool Shen" Lopes is up to 270,000 after picking off an Ari Engel bluff (albeit with a full house). Engel was left with 28,000, and if that wasn't bad enough he had to endure a "rub down" from a player that wasn't even in the hand.
The board read 
and Engel check-raised to 24,600 after the former rapper bet 8,800. Lopes called to the 
river where he snapped the American's 74,500 bet and tabled 
for a full house after Engel tapped the table in defeat. He then mucked.
Engel's head was down but it soon rose when he heard a mocking laughter coming from Etienne Moudaress
down the other end of the table. This obviously upset him more and he responded with, "Why are you laughing at me? This is not poker. Settle down and keep it to yourself."

The players are on their final 20-minute break of the day.
Scotty Nguyen may be down to under 15k in chips, but he's still laughing, smiling and being as friendly at the table as ever.
Over the last orbit before the break, he spent his time folding and telling one tablemate how Vietnamese people use the same term for all-in as the French.
The word is "Tapis" and strangely enough, the English translation of the word is "Carpet."
Either way, it appears Nguyen will be "Tapis" before long.

While a good number of French women turned up for this EPT Deauville Main Event, and a host of female Team PokerStars Pros like Vanessa Rousso, Ana Marquez, Vanessa Selbst and Liv Boeree all played, it appears just one woman remains in the field at this point.
She is Lucille Cailly, a French player with close to $100k in career live tournament earnings including a 47th place finish right here at EPT Deauville back in 2010.
As Day 2 winds down, Cailly is sitting on a 180k stack and it appears she's at least making a run at besting her finish from two years ago.
