Nassim Rais opened to 250,000 from the button, and was met with a three-bet to 500,000 from Romain Quarrit in the small blind.

Patrick Croset was all-in for 1,560,000, and at risk versus Jeremy Chemarin.
Patrick Croset: A♣A♦
Jeremy Chemarin: J♦J♠
Chemarin was crushed, and Croset's double-up was confirmed by the 10♦7♣5♣A♣7♠ runout, Croset ending up with a full house.
Paul Bourdon was all-in for 1,100,000 and at risk against Alexis Tremblay.
Paul Bourdon: A♥4♠
Alexis Tremblay: 8♥8♦
Bourdon needed some help, and although he bricked the 10♦7♣5♣ flop, the A♣ arrived on the turn, and the 7♠ river confirmed his double-up.
There was 420,000 in the middle, on a flop of K♥8♦3♥, in a hand between Julien Gadanho in the big blind and Julien Viel on the button.

The 9♣ turn was quickly knuckled through to the Q♠ river, where Viel snap-folded to a bet of 550,000 from Gadanho.
