The first 11 minutes of action have just passed and there have already been 3 eliminations. In the first, Roger Thibault got it in pre and found a call from Manon Dallaire and the cards were flipped: 
Dallaire: 
Dallaire had a big lead, and it only grew larger on the flop: 
. The turn 
and river 
didn’t change the outcome and Thibault left in 29th place ($800). A few minutes later there were almost simultaneous eliminations on tables 40 and 36. First up – by a hair – was table 36. In the hand, action folded around to Martin Dyotte on the button who elected to go all-in with his last 320K. Tanvir Ahmed made the call from the big blind. Dyotte: 
Ahmed: 
The flop eliminated much of the suspense: 
and the 
on the turn and river eliminated the rest – and the player, who was out in 28th place ($800). The 3rd of the 3 early eliminations was Rene-Philippe Noel, who started the day with just 160K and by the time of his elimination was playing a single big blind. In his final hand the action folded to him, but following his action (from the hijack), the button raised to 150K behind and the bb called.
and the two players with action both checked. On the turn 
, the early position player bet 100K and the bb folded. The remaining live cards were tabled: Noel: 
Big blind: The river was the 
and Noel was eliminated. There has now been a redraw with 26 players remaining. This was added by the tournament director before play tonight – and there will also be another redraw at 18 players remaining (and at 10 players remaining as well, as originally scheduled).
