Patrick St-Onge played the survival game for quite a while, and he was in the big blind with very few chips when Nicola Isaev shoved on him from the small blind. St-Onge made the call, simply hpoing to have 2 live cards. He had better, but luck came against him.

St-Onge :
Isaev hit a 4 on the flop, and St-Onge walked away. On the following hand, a much bigger pot was disputed, as Hadi Ghattas, with nearly 200K, was facing Jonathan Bussi’res who covered him.

Bussières:
Ghattas couldn’t hit a pair, and followed St-Onge to the tournament desk. John Palmer also busted on the other table, leaving just 9 players in the field.
Congratulations to all 3!
Nine players are left, and prize money will increase with every position. It’s on!
