Welcome back to our ongoing coverage of the PokerStars.fr Eurpoean Poker Tour Season 11 Deauville Main Event! The starting field of 592 players has been whittled down to the final 36. Leading the way heading into the fourth day of play is Greece's Georgios Kapalas who bagged up a stack of 1.398 million.
While Kapalas holds the biggest stack of the room, tough competition remains hot on his heels. The second biggest stack belongs to none other than Season 6 EPT Berlin champion Kevin MacPhee. MacPhee is riding a hot streak on the EPT, coming off of a runner-up finish to Sebastian Pauli in the EPT London Main Event. MacPhee pocketed £308,500 for his impress finish and looks to add even more to his total lifetime earnings of over $4.2 million here in Deauville. MacPhee will bring 1.313 million into the fourth day.
Other familiar faces returning to the felt for Day 4 include Guillaume Darcourt (801,000), Ruben Visser (569,000), Benjamin Pollak (519,000), Ognjen Sekularac (392,000), and Sergio Aido (341,000). Team PokerStars Pro is represented by its last standing player: Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier. The French professional had a rough third day but still managed to put chips in the bag by the end of the night. Grospellier will return with 120,000 to his name, which is good for the third overall shortest stack in the room. Grospellier will be looking to spin his stack up early in order to be a force throughout Day 4 play.
Play kicks off at 12 p.m. local time where it is expected to play either four or five full levels. As always, PokerNews will be on hand to provide all of the latest updates from the tournament floor. Stay tuned!

It all started with a limp of Adrien Guyon from the button and Kevin MacPhee got to see a free flop of out of the big blind. The American fired three barrels after flop, turn and river with the final one being 88,000. Guyon now raised to 234,000, which represented more than half of his remaining stack.
MacPhee was sent into the think-tank for several minutes and eventually called off to see the Frenchman turn over for the nut straight. After the hand, Bertrand Grospellier said in table chat that he believes MacPhee had paid 10,000 chips too much to his opponent, which went under review shortly after.
Lost 650k pot when a guy limped button w/ AJ & double floated a gutter & drilled it on the river vs a hand I couldn't fold. 980k again #Follow @KevinMacPhee
