Several small pots have been played, no huge confrontations just yet. Lybaert won a pot with a raise on the flop and picked up some more pre-flop pots.
Just now, a small pot between Pedro Cairat and Marius Gicovanu proved good for the former. Gicovanu limped in from the small blind and Cairat checked. Both players instantly checked the flop () and turn () before Gicovanu bet 1.5 million on the river. Cairat raised to 4.5 million and Gicovanu called. Cairat showed and Gicovanu mucked.
The 3 remaining players have reached an agreement. Both Cairat and Lybaert give up?�2,500 from the ICM numbers so Gicovanu gets an extra �5,000. There's still �30,000 and the trophy to play for.
Pedro Cairat opened under the gun for 1.6 million and big blind Nikolaos Lampropoulos shoved all in for a little under 10 big blinds. Cairat called without hesitation.
