With 132 players now registered and 131 remaining just one player has been eliminated before the end of the third level. That unlucky player does of course have the opportunity to buy back in on the remaining three starting flights.
The players are now on a 45-minute break for lunch.

The player in the small blind completed and Cindy Guilbault in the big blind bumped it up to 500 from the big blind.
A flop of saw it checked to Guilbault who threw out a black T5000 chip and a blue T100. Realising her mistake she said she meant to bet 1,000. Her opponent gave it some thought but obviously thought better of attempting to punish the mistake and folded. A sheepish Guilbault raked in the pot.

Oussama El Mestari, the player with the upside down sunglasses, check-called a bet from Damien Lhommeau on the turn of a board reading .
When the hit the river El Mestari again checked and after some thought paid off a bet of 3,800. Lhommeau showed and El Mestari tapped the table and complimented him, “Good bet.”

Quentin Lecompte was in the big blind and with the board reading he led into two opponents with a bet of 6,000. Jean-Louis Cap made the call as did Antonio Guerrero.
The river card was the and Lecompte pushed the rest of his stack across the line for a bet worth 10,700.
Cap looked like he was on the call but after a quick glance at the player still to act behind him he said, “Pass” and folded. Guerrero also looked in two minds, even picking up the calling chips while giving Lecompte a long look. A couple minutes passed before he too flicked his cards away.
From having all his chips in the middle Lecompte was now above starting stack.
