Simon Belzile was eliminated shortly after the last break in a hand that we missed. Since then, status quo was observed for the better part of 3 levels. Of course, there was some movement, but Mike Lafable was – and still is – still in the lead with over 300K.
Omar Ghaba was the next player to bust. Lafable raised small, and both Ghaba and Anderson called. The flop was checked around, and Anderson open shoved the turn. He did get a call, which he must have thought was bad news, until he saw the cards:

Shortly after, Marcel Cyr, who had brought his stack back to health but was blinded out again, invested his short stack against Michael Zenetzis:

Belzile took $310 for his 7th, while Ghaba’s 6th place gave him $370. Marcel Cyr did a good job at hanging around, and pocketed $470 for his efforts. Well done!
