The remaining 499 players in Day 1b have been sent on their last 20-minute break of the day. Upon their return, they will play two more hour-long levels before bagging for the night.
Action was on the turn on a board of 4♦10♦5♦Q♠ and Benoit Grobocopatel was all in against Xavier Cortazar Vidal, who had slightly more chips as players revealed their hands.
Vidal showed Q♥Q♦ for a set of queens. However, Grobocopatel turned over A♦K♦ for a flopped flush.
The river came a blank, the 7♥, and Grobocopatel held to win the pot and double his stack. Vidal was left short stacked with just a few big blinds.

Younes Hammouchi opened to 2,000 from the cutoff and was three-bet to 5,500 by Adrian Chabbi on the button. Action folded back around to Hammouchi, who called.
Chabbi proceeded to call bets from Hammouchi, first for 4,700 on the 2♠K♦J♦ flop, then for 10,800 on the 4♣ turn, and finally for 12,000 on the 4♥ river.
Hammouchi motioned that Chabbi was good, but Chabbi didn't want to show unless Hammouchi showed fist. Hammouchi opted to muck and Chabbi followed suit before collecting the pot.

Last year's final tablist Denzel Spekman was right next to the defending champion Razvan Belea and shipped his shorter stack in with the A♦Q♦. Jorge Ufano happily called with the A♠A♥ and had little to fear on the Q♣6♣4♠9♣8♣ board.
"Easy game," Belea joked to the Spaniard.

Omar Lakhdari: A♥9♣
The board ran out 8♠3♣4♠10♥9♦; Sheils peeled the perfect turn to pull ahead, ultimately doubling him up.

Julien Labussiere open-jammed from an early position for the last 18,400 and was called by Sal Al Fakih in the big blind.
Julien Labussiere: K♣Q♠
Sal Al Fakih: 10♥10♠
The K♥J♠8♣6♣Q♥ board gave Labussiere two pair and Al Fakih was left with a mere 12 blinds, which vanished before their table broke.
