With roughly 140,000 already in the pot from previous action, and the board reading , Roland van Morckhoven bet 95,000 which was enough to push Pedro Miguel Fernandes out of the pot.
Tensions fray and everyone gets a little bit on edge when we're on the bubble. That was the case on table nine where no less than three tournament staff were drawn into a lengthy discussion about a ruling.
On a board of Rodrigo Requiao check-called Pierre Zerbib's bet of 40,000 and the pair saw a river, which was the . Zerbib, who was second to act, slid out a bit of 75,000 without Requiao checking. Tournament staff were called, and when Requiao slid his 75,000 forward, thinking it was a call, it was revealed that Zerbib could in fact take his bet back or raise.
Tournament staff went away to discuss things and when they came back it was decided that Requiao's action should constitute a call. Zerbib showed and scooped the pot.
Preflop Pierre Zerbib made it 23,000 UTG and Karim Lahlou just called in the big blind.
The flop was and Lahlou bet 34,000 which was raised by Zerbib to 78,000. Lahlou called and both players saw the on the turn. Lahlou then check-called 100,000 and the was checked by both players.

Blind on Blind Natalia Breviglieri raised to 25,000 and Karim Souaid moved all in. However Breviglieri had woken up with a hand and she made the call.
Breviglieri:
Souaid:
Everything was looking fine until the river lead to Souaid jumping out of his seat, and shoving a chair at a neighbouring table to the floor. Breviglieri moves up to 540,000 amongst a series of bust outs, including Guy Taylor, Roland van Morckhoven and Rakesh Lalwani
