Level 3
: 150/300, 50 ante
Marc Naalden won a $ 2,000 Limit Hold'em of the World Series of Poker back in 2009 and thus represents another owner of a golden bracelet in today's field. The score of $190,770 back then isn't the biggest payday in the career of the Dutchman though, as he also took down the Master Classics of Poker in Amsterdam in 2007 as well for €160,640.
Naalden has earned $1,316,624 according to his Hendon Mob profile thus far, will he add more to that here in Cannes?
Level 3
: 150/300, 50 ante
Some 230 players qualified online for this stop of the Unibet Open in Cannes, however the number of official representatives is rather small. Team Pro Quentin Lecomte and Ambassador Pierre Menes are now joined by Amaury "TheArtist" Grelot, who mostly plays online and very rarely on the live circuit.

flop.

Level 3
: 150/300, 50 ante
Charles Bonnet was listed with a stack of 79,000 after the break but a quick glance at his table revealed that the Frenchman only had 7,900. The start for Antonin Teisseire was equally disappointing, as the World Series of Bracelet winner is down to one third of the initial stack.
