Belghiti Smail opened the cutoff to 6,000 and then called after Mustapha Rabi Andaloussi three-bet to 13,000 from the small blind.
On the A♥5♣4♥ flop, Rabi Andaloussi continued for 14,500 and Smail quickly made the call.
The turn brought the Q♠. Rabi Andaloussi cut out another bet to the size of 27,500, and Smail called once again.
The 8♠ peeled off on the river. Rabi Andaloussi slid forward a stack of red 5,000 totaling 100,000, almost full pot. Smail went into the tank for a bit before he ultimately decided to let it go, ceding a sizeable pot to Rabi Andaloussi without showdown.

A large pot of around 105,000 had formed on the turn in a pot between Jeremie Canetti from under the gun and Yassine Najim from the cutoff.
With the board reading A♣4♥2♥10♦, Canetti jammed his remaining 84,500 into the middle which sent Najim into the tank. After a minute of deliberation, he slide his chips forward to call, committing over half of his remaining stack.
Jeremie Canetti: A♥8♥
Yassine Najim: A♠Q♥
Both players had top pair but Najim's kicker was better. However, Canetti could spike a heart or eight to double. Luckily for Najim, the river was a blank K♣ and Najim's queen played to bust Canetti.

Polo Santoni opened from the hijack and was called by Tony Prenveille in the small blind. In the big blind, Jose Guerreiro squeezed to 12,000 and both opponents called.
Three ways to a 6♠5♣3♥ flop, Guerreiro continued for 25,000, Santoni quickly called, and Prenveille folded.
On the 7♦ turn, Guerreiro did not slow down as he fired for 50,000. Instantaneously, Santoni announced all-in for 170,000 as the smaller of the two stacks. Guerreiro thought for a while before the clock was called and he eventually decided to fold.
Santoni tabled A♦4♦ for a turned straight and Guerreiro made the correct fold to preserve his stack.
