Richard Dromzee raised from the cutoff and quickly called when Sebastien Compte moved all in for his last 38,000.
Sebastien Compte: A♠9♠
Richard Dromzee: A♣J♣
Dromzee wound up with Broadway after the 10♦3♣8♥Q♣Kx runout to thin the field by a player.
Bentayeb Ayoub raised to 6,000 from under the gun and Abdou Zizi defended his big blind.
Zizi check-raised to 15,000 over a bet of 5,000 on the 5♠5♣4♣ flop. The 9♣ turn checked through to the J♦ river. Zizi check-called a bet of 35,000.
Ayoub tabled A♣2♣ for a flush, and Zizi mucked his hand.
A pot of 113,000 had brewed between Rex Jeroshan and Yassine Harrach, with the Q♣10♣7♥4♦5♦ board on show.
Harrach bet 55,000 from early position, and was sent into the blender after Jeroshan jammed for 190,500. Harrach had 260,500 behind, and was in a world of hurt.
The clock was called, and when the countdown hit ten seconds, he folded.
Both players agreed to show their cards. Harrach folded A♦Q♦, and he was pleased to see Jeroshan had him beat with 7♠7♣, which was good for a set of sevens.
Said Sadallah raised to 6,000 from under the gun. Gary Fisher and Adrien Sanz called from the button and big blind.
The 9♥9♠4♦ flop checked through to the 6♥ turn. Sanz led out for 6,000, forcing out Sadallah. Fisher made it 25,000 and took down the pot.
