Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Jon Thorvaldsson re-entered to table five which had a stacked line-up already. In one of the first hands there, he saw a flop of K♦9♥7♣ on which Mihkel Vitsur check-raised from 2,000 to 8,000. Thorvaldsson then pushed all-in and Vitsur called after a few seconds of consideration.

Jon Thorvaldsson: A♣K♥ All in
Mihkel Vitsur: A♣K♥

The 10♠ turn and 7♥ river were blanks, Thorvaldsson was busted again right away.

Three ways to the 10♦6♠3♠4♦ turn, Tapio Aaltonen bet 20,000 and forced one fold. Quang Thanh Doan then called all-in for around 9,000 and the cards were flipped over.

Quang Thanh Doan: 9♠8♠ All in
Tapio Aaltonen: A♦A♥

Doan had a lot of outs with his flush draw and gutshot, but none of them came on the 2♣ river.

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

"You are running hot," another player at the table remarked when Joni Väistö collected a big pot, having just busted Kaido Mikk. It was a setup hand in which both players flopped a set. To make matters worse, Väistö turned the nuts as his 5♣5♠ improved to quads on the K♠5♥3♥5♦K♥ board to leave Mikk's 3♣3♠ for treys full second-best.
