Healing Chips for Robert

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

It was another tricky river spot for another player in the field as this time Sebastien Compte was staring down Julien Robert trying to get a read off the Frenchman.

He had just moved all in for his remaining 8,500 chips into a 13,000 chip pot on the river of {6-Spades}{J-Spades}{J-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{9-Spades}. Compte was short also, and an incorrect call here would leave him nursing just over 12bb. He made the call but winced as Robert showed {J-Hearts}{K-Hearts} for trips.

El Mehdi Triples Up!

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

A peculiar hand developed on one of the tables at the far end of the room. With the blinds 200/400, the player UTG+1 raised to 850, when El Mehdi El Mimouni, sittin to his immediate left moved all-in for his remaining 1150 chips. This player managed to get no less than three callers and the side pot was arranged.

However, all three other players checked down a board of {2-Hearts}{K-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{9-Spades}. El Mehdi sheepishly presented {5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} to the other players for a pair - and was good! El Mehdi secured the triple up but is still in dire straights with just over 5,000 chips

Silva Value-bets his Set

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Miguel Gomes Silva opened from middle position and got 2 callers including Christophe Jonin. On a flop of {3-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{K-Clubs} Silva bet 1500. Jonin eyed up Silva's stack but made the call. Again, Jonin lead on the {8-Diamonds} turn, this time for 3500, and again Jonin called.

The river was the {4-Spades} and for the third street Silva bet. This time the bet was 10k, leaving the Portuguese player just over 5,000 behind. Jonin went deep into the tank, and time was called. 30 seconds into the time Jonin made the call but looked crestfallen when Silva turned over {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} for a flopped set.

"You missed out on 5,000" said one of his table-mates, referring to the amount Silva had behind. However Silva didn't move all-in, and possibly managed to get one more bet out of Silva on the river

Evrard Doubles Up

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

The board read {3-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and Evrard just called a bet of just over half pot and saw the {9-Hearts} on the river along with two other players. With the pot now well over 30,000 chips, it was checked to Evrard who shoved for his remaining 5,450 chips. It was a trivial call for his opponent, but the chips were heading to Evrard who showed {Q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. His opponents cards {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts} were quickly shown but headed straight for the muck as Evrard moved up the leaderboard

Souaid With the River Call

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Karim Souaid pumped his fist and scooped a pot of chips after calling on the river and being right. His opponent had gone all-in for 13,000 chips into a 20,000 chip pot on a board which read {2-Hearts}{9-Spades}{K-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. Souaid went deep into the tank and thought before making the call, tabling {K-Spades}{5-Spades} which not only beat his opponents hand of {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} but knocked them out of the tournament
