Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Joining the action on the heads-up turn of 9♥6♥4♣6♠ on a four-handed table, Mouhcine Mbarki bet 1,300 in the cutoff. Ran Shahar called on the button and they headed to the 2♦ river.

Both checked this time and Mbarki revealed his 8♥8♠, which was enough to win the pot.

Shahar comes fresh off a victory at King's Resort, where he came out on top of a nearly 5,000-entry strong field in a €380 buy-in for a six-figure score.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Sean Jazayeri raised to 500 from under the gun and Olivier Murrachioli flat-called out of the small blind. Murrachioli then check-called all the way for 600 on the A♦Q♠7♠ flop, 800 on the 2♣ turn and 1,500 on the 10♣ river.

"Two pair," Jazayeri announced and flipped over the Q♥10♠. That was enough to win the pot as Murrachioli shook his head and mucked.

Anatoly Chen open limped and Umit Deniz raised over the top for 800. David Benhammou called, Vincent Maison called in the small blind, and Chen also called the bet.

The flop came 8♣4♥2♥. Action checked to Deniz, who made it 2,500 to go. Maison and Chen both called. The turn was the K♥ and all three players checked.

The river brought the K♦ and Maison led for 3,200. Chen called and Deniz let out a sigh before tossing a chip in the middle. He turned over Q♥Q♦ for two pair, queens and kings. Maison mucked and Chen flipped 6♥5♥ for a turned flush to win the pot.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Jean Bouveret limped under the gun and then Petr Novotny, sitting one seat across, raised over the limp to 700. The player in the big blind called and so did Bouveret.

The flop came Q♦8♠5♦. Action checked to Novotny, who continued for 1,100. The big blind folded and Bouveret called.

The turn was the 10♦. Bouveret checked, Novotny bet 1,500, then Bouveret responded with a check-raise to 4,000. Novotny opted to fold and Bouveret won the pot.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

On the tail end of a J♦8♦3♠6♦9♥ board, Jacques Bellity checked and subsequently called a bet worth 5,000 by Ali Bayrak in the cutoff. The latter showed the 7♦5♠ for a straight and Bellity was not amused at all according to his disappointed table chat in French, indicating his opponent would have gotten there with a lot of luck.

Bayrak just smirked and slowly stacked up the chips.
