Juha Helppi had raised to 850 from under the gun and Jason Wheeler called, heading to a heads-up flop of 
. Wheeler checked, Helppi continued for 1,125 and then quickly folded as Wheeler had check-raised to 3,300. The American expat, fully focused on his game, showed no reaction at all when collecting the chips and appeared completely in the zone.
His stack is not in the profit zone just yet though, but another double would send him there.

Ruben Visser just "got owned" by Artan Dedusha with Vladimir Stepanian also in the hand and dropped down to half the starting stack while a couple other well known pros are also well below the 30,000 chips, too. Wouter Beltz is the complete opposite on more than three times of what everyone initially received.

Jean Montury opened the action from early position and Vlado Banicevic defended his big blind. On the 
turn, Banicevic check-called a bet of 1,300 and then led the 
river for 2,700. Banicevic immediately gave up and tossed his cards into the muck to award the pot to the Frenchman, who also raised the next hand from under the gun.
Farid Chati called from the button and then folded to a continuation bet on the 
flop. "Nice hand?" he asked and the Frenchman just grinned back.

Jasper Meijer van Putten got there with the 
against the pocket queens including of Vlado Banicevic and doubled up his stack while Gleb Kovtunov tried the same hazard shortly after. The Ukrainian three-bet to 2,000 and then four-bet jammed into a reraise by Clyde Tjauw Foe to take a flip with

The Dutchman improved and Kovtunov had to purchase a second entry, getting him a seat to the right of current chip leader Piet Bakker. The latter spiked middle set against the top pair of Giorgio La Iacona and no miracle appeared anymore on turn nor river.
