Team PokerStars SportsStar Fatima Moreira de Melo just raised to 1,000 and Huidong Gu three-bet to 3,000, and the Dutch former professional athlete made the call.
The flop brought 
and Moreira de Melo check-raised Gu's bet from 5,700 to 15,000 and Gu went into the tank. Eventually Gu made it 35,000 and Moreira de Melo went all in for 81,575.
Gu tanked for several minutes, flashed the 
before throwing his cards into the muck.
Ludovic Geilich just raised to 950 and from his direct right it was Marko Koprivca who moved all in for his last 5,475. The action folded back to Geilich, who did some thinking before putting in the call.
Geilich: 
Koprivica: 
The board ran out 
and Koprivica doubled up.
"He's not supposed to have that card," Geilich joked at his hand being dominated.
EPT12 Dublin Main Event third-place finisher Kully Sidhu and Team PokerStars Pro Celina Lin sit beside each other, but on opposite ends of the chip count spectrum right now.
Sidhu got over the 100,000-chip mark when he flopped top set of tens and got it in against one opponent willing to gamble with a flush draw. Needless to say, he bricked, giving Sidhu his stack.
But not before Sidhu doubled Lin, who jammed her short stack with 
smack into his pocket queens, finding a king on the river to survive.
Turkish player Osman Mustanoglu has joined the group at the top of the counts that currently sits with over 100,000 chips.
His big move up the leader board came when one player decided to squeeze four-bet rags into his pocket aces. Most of the rest were collected when another opponent turned a set of tens against his pocket queens.
Mustanoglu made a set of his own on the river and was forced to make a big call with four diamonds and a possible Broadway straight on the jack-high board, but managed to pull the trigger, and has 105,000 now as a result.
Level: 6
Blinds: 200/400

A lot of players are in the tournament, but slowly but surely we're losing some too! These are some of the most recognizable names that have already parted ways with their 30,000-chip stack.
Frenchman Jonathan Khalifa has been on the right end of a series of set ups, and now sits among the leaders on over 100,000.
Khalifa flopped two sets, getting it in against two pair and holding both times. Then, when one opponent made a set against him, he found a straight.
Since building the big stack early, he's continued to chip up and has the air of invincibility around him heading deep into the second half of the day.
