Following a button open from Vico, Stéphane Lesueur moved all in for 51,000 from the small blind. Vico made the call.
Stéphane Lesueur: K♣Q♣ 
Vico: 8♠8♥
The 2♥4♥3♠ flop offered no help to Lesueur, who banged the table before the 10♦ turn was dealt. It may not have worked the first time, but he did so again as the K♠ river hit the felt, securing both his double and his survival.
Action was picked up on the turn, with sparks flying between small blind Thierry Dany and middle position player Ziga Klopcic. Despite there being only 35,000 in the pot, the players had gotten it all in on the 7♣J♣5♠A♦ board, with Klopcic covering his opponent's stack of 180,000.
Thierry Dany: A♠J♠
Ziga Klopcic: A♥7♥
The turn was a cruel one, as both players had made two pair. Dany's was best, however, and remained so on the 4♠ river, securing him a massive double.
Level: 15
Blinds: 2,000/4,000
Ante: 4,000
The players are now headed to a second 15-minute break of the day. Action resumes at 5:30 p.m. local time.
Angela Rogan opened to 7,500 from middle position. Yurii Senchylo was two seats to her left, and flatted the bet. Jean Montury defended his big blind.
He then checked the 9♣4♠A♠ flop, and Rogan continued for 11,000. Senchylo liked the price, and threw in 11,000 from his own stack, but Montury got out of the way.
The 9♥ peeled off on the turn, and Rogan didn't put on the brakes, sizing up to 30,000. Senchylo let his hand go.
Ruben Abitbol opened the action by jamming his stack of 37,000 from middle position. Abdelghani Bagas flatted the bet on his left, before Fishdelcopon rejammed from the cutoff, covering Bagas. Action folded back around to Bagas, and he folded A♠9♠ face up.
Ruben Abitbol: 7♣7♦
Fishdelcopon: A♥K♥
The Q♥4♥5♥ flop was about as bad as it gets for Abitbol, who needed running cards to a boat. The J♠ turn confirmed his elimination, with the 4♦ river changing nothing.

Abdullah Akbarpoor opened to 6,000 from middle position. Paul Pires-Trigo moved all in for 12,500, and action folded back to Akbarpoor. "I should fold," he said, before sticking in the call.
Paul Pires-Trigo: J♣10♣
Abdullah Akbarpoor: 5♠7♣
The Q♦Q♥K♣ flop was great for Pires-Trigo, as he had plenty of ways to turn his opponent dead. The 5♥ was not one, however, as he now needed to retake the lead for survival. He did so on the A♠ river, securing a full double.
Sammy Berrehail opened the action as he jammed for 21,000 from late position. Malcom Franchi called on the button, and the blinds got out of the way.
Sammy Berrehail: 10♥10♠
Malcom Franchi: 4♠4♥
The J♠2♠Q♥ flop was clean for Berrehail, as was the 6♥ turn. Franchi pushed one of his fours towards the dealer, trying to will in a river set, but the 9♠ river secured the double for his opponent.
