Thomas Gartiser opened to 16,000 from early position and found a single call from Dumitru Barta, who defended his big blind.
Both players checked through the A♠6♦4♦ flop and 7♥ river. Action was then on Barta after the 7♦ river, taking some time before announcing all in to put his opponent to the test.
Gartiser smirked as he counted his stack, opting the muck his hand as Barta collected the pot.
Benjamin Ozer opened to 85,000 on the button, leaving a small amount of chips behind. Cristian Vornicu moved all in from the small blind, and Ozer slid in the rest of his stack.
Benjamin Ozer: Q♣7♣ 
Cristian Vornicu: A♦J♣
Ozer was looking for help and found it immediately on the 5♥Q♠3♦ flop. The 6♥ turn and 10♠ river were clean, as Ozer doubled through Vornicu.
Andrei Miron opened to 16,000 from early position and was called by Iulian Dragan in middle position and Sergiu Covrig in the small blind.
Covrig and Miron checked the 5♥K♥4♠ flop before Dragan fired 25,000. Covrig then check-raised all in for 113,000, with Miron folding and Dragan making the call.
Sergiu Covrig: K♦Q♦
Iulian Dragan: J♣J♦
Covrig out-flopped Dragan's pocket jacks hitting a king on the flop, and the 10♥9♥ runout cemented his double up.

Rares Popa opened to 13,000 in the hijack before Alexandru Anghel announced a three-bet to 37,000 in the small blind. Ionut Zanfirache then four-bet to 86,000 in the big blind and Popa got out of the way.
Anghel took a moment before five-betting to 150,000, snap-calling when Zanfirache moved all in.
Alexandru Anghel: K♣K♥
Ionut Zanfirache: A♣A♦
The largest pot of the tournament was playing out, as Anghel's stack of 424,000 was in the middle and covered by Zanfirache.
The 9♥J♣2♣Q♠8♣ runout changed nothing, as Anghel's kings could not topple Zanfirache's aces confirming his exit.
