Just over two levels down and another break has come around.
Etienne Moudarres opened up, making it 100k to see a flop, only to see Luca Pagano three-bet it up to 300k.
Moudarrescalled and led out for 300,000 on the 

flop.
Pagano quickly pushed all in, having Moudarres covered and although he tanked for a moment, he folded.
Paul Guichard has extended his lead after a huge pot went down at the outer table that saw two players eliminated.
Guichard opened from the hijack and saw Denis Cheremisin move all-in from the button and Chris Brammer move all-in from the small blind. He insantly called to set up a three-way showdown.
Guichard: 

Cheremisin: 

Brammer: 

The board ran 



to see the kings hold up. The flop and turn offered hope for both all-in players, but the river bricked.
No doubt Brammer will be off to grind Sunday online. Good luck focusing properly on that.
Luca Pagano limped the button while Bruno Jais and Vadim Kursevich decided to come along for the ride in the blinds.
The 

flop was checked around, but after the
turn, there were fireworks.
Jais made it 150k and after Kursevich gave it up, Pagano bumped it up to 325k.
Jais fired right back, however, making it a cool million.
Pagano went deep into the tank on this one, but emerged folding as Jais continues his climb up the leaderboard.
Olivier Rogez opened to 80,000 in middle position and Vuong Than Trong three-bet to 200,000 from the hijack. The rest of the table folded, Rogez called, and the flop came down 

.
Rogez led out for 175,000, but Trong shoved for 745,000. After a few moments Rogez called and watched as Trong tabled 
for middle pair. Rogez was trailing with 
and found no help from the
turn nor the
river.
Artem Litvinov had barely sat down at the new feature table and found himself all in with 
against Bruno Jais' 
.
The board ran out 



and he was eliminated in 16th place as Jais pushed up over the 3-million chip mark.

Nikolaus Teichert doubled up in a strange hand versus Denis Cheremisin.
Cheremisin raised from the cut-off and the German player defended his big blind before he led for 170,000 on the 

flop. Cheremisin called and then bet 250,000 when Teichert checked to him on the
turn. Teichert called and then shoved for 800,000 on the
river. Cheremisin snap called but mucked upon seeing Teichert's 
. What could he have snap called with?
A few hands later Cheremisin manged to double up to 310,000 when his 
stayed ahead of Ignat Liviu after he called all-in from the big blind when the Romanian shoved.
Christian Togsverd made a stand, open shoving his last 775k with 
only to get look up by Etienne Moudaress holding 
.
The board ran out 



and the Dane hit the rail without much of a sweat.
Now down to 16 players, the EPT Deauville Main Event has just two tables remaining.
