Shocker Alert: Former Chip Leader Patrice Sitbon Eliminated!

In a stunning turn of events, Patrice Sitbon -- chip leader at the beginning of the day -- has been eliminated from the Cannes Main Event.

Bleeding chips throughout the day, Sitbon dropped all the way down to 43,000 before moving all in from the big blind after his opponent completed the small. The small blind called and Sitbon tabled a dismal king-eight; his opponent had him dominated with king-ten.

Failing to catch an eight, Sitbon was sent home in 34th place with $19,260 in prize money.
