Ehrhardt Jams Into Delaine
Level 19
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Julien Ehrhardt raised to 13,000 from under the gun and was called only by Tom Delaine on the button. The 
flop was checked to Delaine, who bet 40,000. Ehrhardt then pushed with the superior stack and Delaine quickly folded to get shown the

Calamusa Adds More Chips
Level 19
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Pierre Calamusa arrived with two racks to his new table after the previous one in the Mandalay Room broke. He soon after defended the big blind against a button raise by Remi Parpillon and they checked the 
flop. Calamusa bet the 
turn for 15,000 and that won the pot right away.
He then took a selfie with his new Spanish table neighbour and joked to be chip leader after Day 1 only to bust on Day 2. Guess that prediction will be deciphered in the next hour and upcoming few days.

Level 19
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
With a pot of 100,000 to the 
river, Alexis Bouvier checked in the big blind. Daniel Pereira bet 70,000 on the button and that sent Bouvier into the tank for half a minute. He then tossed in a single chip for the call and Pereira tabled the 
. That was good as Bouvier mucked the 
to drop behind Pereira on the leaderboard.

Late Casualties in the Main Room
Level 19
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Only some 78 players remain on Day 1a and some former big stacks are no longer among them. Hugo Legrand and "Tsunamy", for example, were spotted on the way out as their early rise to the top of the leaderboard brought no joy at the end.

Late Double for Negron; Milhoes Unhappy
Level 19
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Christian Ly was involved in three-way action and pushed the 
river when checked to by Mario Milhoes as the only remaining opponent. Milhoes was visibly upset and tank-folded as Ly's late surge continued.
Moments later, Marc Negron pushed for 46,500 in the small blind and Milhoes called from one seat over.
Marc Negron:
Mario Milhoes: 
The 
flop improved Milhoes and Negron vaulted out of his chair, then sat back down on the turn and the 
river was a blank. Milhoes' mood darkened even more and their table broke shortly after.

Remaud Eliminated by Bouvier
Level 18
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
"The blinds have priority," the tournament director confirmed with the dealer which could only mean one thing. One player had just lost the vast majority of the chips and was forced all-in out of the blinds.
That happened to be Jean-Charles Remaud after a clash with Titas Gancierius and he was all-in for the final 3,000 out of the big blind. He then faced the raise to 8,000 by Sylvain Pujol from under the gun and the button call by Gancierius.
Alexis Bouvier squeezed to 50,000 in the small blind and isolated successfully.
Jean-Charles Remaud: 
Alexis Bouvier:
"I had king-queen, no worries it's a standard play," Pujol told Bouvier in French. The 
board kept jacks in the lead and Remaud exited late on Day 1a.
