Level 4
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
A big pot of 34,000 had developed by the river on a board of 10♣3♣2♦5♦4♥, in a hand between Essersi Salah and Martin Louzao.
Salah fired out an overbet of 37,000, and Louzao took a fair bit of time before ultimately sending his hand to the muck.
Level 4
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Romain Gaillard opened to 1,200 from under the gun, and was met with a three-bet to 5,500 from Jerome La Bianda in the cutoff.
Action folded back to Gaillard, who called.
On the A♥J♥2♠ flop, Gaillard promptly check-folded versus a bet of 3,000 from La Bianda.
Level 4
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Loic Morand opened to 1,200 from middle position, and was met with a three-bet to 3,600 from Jeremy Abdulah in the cutoff.
Action back to Morand, who called to see a flop of 7♣7♦3♣.
Morand check-called a bet of 6,000 from Abdulah, and the J♠ hit on the turn.
Action slowed down and was checked to the 5♦ river.
Morand led out with a bet of 5,000, and confidently tabled 6♠6♦ when Abdulah called, but Abdulah had A♠A♦ for the better two pair.

Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Thomas Sacquet opened to 1,000 from the cutoff, and received calls from the button, the small blind, and Arnaud Courreges in the big blind.
On the 8♥7♥5♥ flop, action was checked to Sacquet, who slid out a bet of 1,500. The button called, before Courreges produced a check-raise to 5,500.
Sacquet called, the button got out of the way, and the 3♦ fell on the turn.
Courreges continued to fire, sliding out a bet of 10,000, which failed to shake off Sacquet.
The 4♦ river completed the board, and Courreges put out a bet of 20,000, covering Sacquet's remaining stack of just over 19,000.
Sacquet quickly made the call, and Courreges was dismayed to see he'd been coolered, his 10♥2♥ for the flopped ten-high flush running into Sacquet's nut flush with A♥4♥.
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
A big pot of 18,000 had developed by the river on a board of K♠5♥5♣9♦10♦, in a three-way hand between Julien Robinot in the cutoff, Jeremy Cauchard on the button, and Gaetan Godof in the small blind.
It took an age for the river to be knuckled through by all three participants, and Godof was pretty disgusted when he saw his Q♥Q♠ was no good versus Cauchard's K♣3♣.

Level 2
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
A pot of 7,000 had developed by the river on a board of 7♦5♥3♣8♦A♠, in a hand between Virginie Michel-Malleret on the button and Adrien Gallet in the big blind.
Gallet fired out a bet of 4,000, and Michel-Malleret called after around a minute of thought.
Gallet tabled Q♥9♦ for air, and Michel-Malleret took the pot with A♦6♠ for the rivered pair of aces.
Level 2
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Kamel El Bouzidi limped from middle position, before Remi Gazen raised to 1,200 from the button. Sebastien Benisti called in the small blind, as did El Bouzidi.
The Q♥J♣9♠ flop was checked through to the Q♠ turn, where Benisti checked. El Bouzidi slid out a bet of 1,300, and both of his opponents called.
The 9♦ river completed the board, and Benisti checked once more. El Bouzidi fired out a bet of 3,300, Gazen folded, and Benisti called after some thought.
El Bouzidi looked sheepish and was reluctant to table his cards, eventually showing only the K♣. Benisti tabled A♥J♦ for two pair. queens and jacks, and El Bouzidi mucked.
Florian Caillou is at the table, after bubbling Day 1a and soft-bubbling Day 1b, both with ace-king. If ever a player deserved a min cash, it's him.
