From four at the start of the day, we've just lost the last Unibet Poker Ambassador remaining in the field.

Alexandre Reard joins David Lappin, Ian Simpson and Dan Murariu on the rail, and they will have to hope to get through the Turbo Day 1c which gets underway on Friday at 8pm local time.

Urbonas into Monster Chip Lead

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Earlier, Mantas Urbonas was challenging Gilles Segers for the overall chip lead, but as the Dutch player faltered, Urbonas has made no such mistake and has soared ahead to around 300,000 in chips.

His stack dwarfs those of the other players at the table, with Jerome Brion's 120,000 the closest in comparison.

Just over two levels remain in the day, with Urbonas' sights now firmly set on potentially bettering Michel Leibgorin's 532,000 from yesterday's 'Paris Edition' Unibet Open flight.

Table of Big Stacks

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

With a tournament average of around 91,000, all but two of the players currently sat at Table 11 are above average. They include former chip leader Gilles Segers, but he has been overtaken by the likes of Dimitar Popov and Louis Linard with just 34 players remaining.

Brion Gets a Fold From Piraux

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Action was on a {8-Spades}{2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} board and Romain Piraux had checked to opponent Jerome Brion.

The pot was around 34,000 and Brion bet around half, sliding 17,000 into them idle. Piraux took his time with his decision before electing to fold.

He sits with around 25 big blinds with table chip leader Lucas Amzalak sitting closer to 50 big blinds.
