turn to the 
river where the small blind checked for a third time. Schutten counted out a bet and then slid 275,000 into the middle. His opponent thought it over for some time but did end up making the call only to be shown 
by Schutten for the rivered flush. The small blind mucked, sending the large pot Schutten's way.
flop, Nicolas Noguera was in the small blind and ended up getting his 520,000 remaining chips in against Stephan Nussrallah in the big blind.
turn kept Nussrallah ahead, but the 
hit the felt on the river to improve Noguera to a flush and keep his tournament life alive.
flop did give Lavis a gutshot to broadway as well as a backdoor flush draw but the 
river sealing the double for Moreno.
and Sande's superior kicker played to secure his double.
