Cedric Audineau found pocket aces in the big blind and he saw six players limp in front of him. He bumped it up to 4,000 when it was his turn and to his surprise, four players called.
The flop came down 
and Audineau continued with a bet of 7,000. Only Ivo Schoofs called this time and they saw the 
turn.
This is the point where Audineau got all in for about 60,000 and he was called by his opponent with pocket sixes.
The river was a blank and Audineau his aces held up as the best hand. Schoofs was left with 10,000 but he hasn't been seen in his seat since he lost the big pot.

Ben Martin is an active member of the community and he just posted a picture in the Discord channel of Lex Veldhuis. Martin posted a photo of his stack that was now well over 100,000.
Martin told PokerNews that he had a rough couple of first levels where he couldn't really do anything. After he got moved tables he managed to get something going. He won a big pot when he raise-called after his opponent three-bet when he held ace-jack.
He flopped an ace and he called a bet on the flop. The turn was a brick and both players in the hand checked. The opponent of Martin got all-in after Martin had bet about 7,000 and Martin called. His opponent had pocket queens and Martin had the best hand.
