An early position player opened to 8,500 and Johann Zeitoun three-bet jammed from the cutoff. Action folded back to the early position player and he called with a smaller stack.
Opponent: A♦K♥
Johann Zeitoun: J♥J♦
The flop landed 10♥J♠7♥ to improve Zeitoun to a set but to keep things interesting with his opponent having a gutshot straight draw and backdoor flush draw. The board finished out 5♠3♠ and Zeitoun stayed ahead to eliminate his opponent.

In a heads-up pot with close to 15,000 in the middle on a flop of 7♦6♣6♥, Bruno Fitoussi bet out 11,000 from under the gun and Andreas Bolling made the call in the cutoff.
On the 10♠ turn Fitoussi bet again, this time to 15,000. Bolling took a few seconds before raising to 30,000, which Fitoussi quickly called.
The 7♥ completed the board and Fitoussi checked. Bolling announced a bet of 50,000 and Fitoussi went in the tank. After close to a minute of deliberation, Fitoussi folded and the pot was awarded to Bolling.

Maya Geller was all in against Umberto Zaffagnini from a few seats over, who had her covered.
Maya Geller: 8♥8♣
Umberto Zaffagnini: A♠J♣
It looked like Geller would survive the flip as the flop of Q♠6♠9♥ kept her eights ahead and the 8♠ turn improved her to a set to have Zaffagnini drawing to a gutshot straight and backdoor flush. But the dealer then put down the 10♥ to give him the straight and mark Geller's elimination.
"Unbelievable," Geller sighed as she left the table.
Geller is the spouse of Finnish poker legend Patrik Antonius, who appeared on the most recent episode of the PokerNews Podcast.

Rubens Sellam opened to 7,000 from under the gun and Kacper Jerzy Swiderski made the call next to act. The action folded around to Steven Restagno in the small blind who elected on a three-bet to 31,500.
The big blind got out of the way and Sellam put in a four-bet to 70,000. Swiderski reluctantly folded and Restagno moved all in for just over 100,000, which Sellam snap-called with a bigger stack.
Steven Restagno: A♣K♦
Rubens Sellam: A♦A♠
Restagno ran into a cooler and when the board ran out 10♣8♠2♦A♥9♣, it was the aces that held up to send Restagno to the exit.

Jimmy Kebe opened to 6,000 in the cutoff and Andreas Vlachos defended out of the small blind.
Vlachos checked on the flop of Q♣Q♠5♦ and Kebe continued for 4,000. Vlachos responded with a small check-raise to 8,000 and Kebe called.
The turn brought the 10♦ and Kebe sized up to 25,000. Vlachos folded without a fight.

The action folded around to Giuseppe Zarbo on the button who opened for 6,500 and only Guillaume Alfieri made the call in the big blind.
The flop came A♦J♣3♣ and Alfieri checked to Zarbo who continued for 6,000. Alfieri took some time before tossing in a check-raise to 16,000. Zarbo quickly let his hand go and the pot was sent to Alfieri.
