Bifarella Reaches the 10 Million-Chip Mark
Just a few minutes after dinner break, Samuel Bifarella went from 5,000,000 to 10,450,000 in just a few hands.
He first eliminated Julien Belotti with AxQx against Ax9x for 860,000 chips. Two hands later, he opened from early position. David Girard to his left moved all-in for 1,365,000, then Guy Giovacchini on the button jammed for 2,605,000. Bifarella didn't wait to call with aces.
David Girard: A♦10♦ 
Guy Giovacchini: Q♠Q♣
Samuel Bifarella: A♠A♣
Giovacchini found a flush draw on the turn, but on J♥8♦7♥6♦K♥, he was eliminated just like Giovacchini. Thanks to this double elimination, Bifarella is now the overall chip leader.
A few minutes later, second-in-chips Gabin Massard took his seat to his left. Both players now hold close to 18,000,000, roughly ten times the average stack.
