Nivel 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Georgios Vrakas was seen dragging in a decent sized pot early on in the main event on a board of 7♦2♦8♣5♣9♣.

Vrakas checked the river and his opponent, Alexandre Vuilleumier checked behind. Vrakas showed K♥K♣ for pocket kings and Vuilleumier mucked his hand to concede the pot.

"Would you have called a river bet?", asked a neutral player.

"Crying call," said Vrakas.

Nivel 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

In the first hand dealt of the Main Event, the action was picked up on a flop of 5♦J♥A♦ with around 4,000 chips in the middle. Jason James checked it over to Adrien Quetelart, who fired a bet of 1,500. James called.

A 3♣ on the turn was checked by both players to the K♠ river, where James led out for 2,500. After a while, Quetelart announced a raise and dropped two blue chips into the pot, which totaled 10,000. James called at lightning speed.

Quetelart then showed K♥4♥ for a pair of kings, but James had the winner holding A♥Q♦ for a pair of aces.
