Level 7 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Max Kruse raised to 15,000 in the hijack and was called by Burak Simsek on the button. Vasili Firsau then three-bet to 62,000 in the big blind, which Kruse four-bet to 215,000.

Simsek eventually got out of the way before Firsau committed his stack of 278,000. Kruse instantly called and the cards went face-up.

Vasili Firsau: A♥A♣J♥3♦
Max Kruse: A♠A♦7♠5♥

Firsau flopped a flush draw on 2♠8♥9♥, and the 5♣ turn gave him a gutshot as well. The latter came in on the 4♣ river, giving him a wheel to double up.

Level 7 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Christian Stratmeyer had gone all in preflop from under the gun and was called by no less than four players.

With several hundred thousands already in the middle, Erblin Shehu in the big blind, "Appie" in middle position, Tina Bajric in the cutoff, and Sergio Martinez Gonzalez on the button all decided to go all-in on the 2♣9♦8♥ flop, creating a pot of over two million chips.

Christian Stratmeyer: J♠4♦2♦Xx All in
"Appie": A♦A♣6♣5♠ All in
Sergio Martinez Gonzalez: 10♥9♠8♦7♥ All in
Erblin Shehu: K♥K♦9♥9♣ All in
Tina Bajric: K♠K♣6♠2♠

Martinez Gonzalez rivered a straight on the 5♦6♥ runout, winning the main pot of nearly 400 big blinds. Shehu's top set earned him a small side pot, while Sratmeyer and "Appie" left empty-handed.

Level 7 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Amir Mozaffarian limped in under the gun and saw Borislav Bogdanov raise to 22,000 in the hijack. Youness Barakat came in the small blind before Mozaffarian bumped up the price to 93,000.

Bogdanov quickly got out of the way but Barakat put in a call. He then committed his final 65,000 or so on the J♥9♣J♠ flop and was snap-called by Mozaffarian.

Youness Barakat: A♠10♦9♦4♠ All in
Amir Mozaffarian: A♥A♦Q♠5♣

Mozaffarian's aces held on the Q♥7♣ runout and he knocked Barakat out of the tournament.

Level 6 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Cesar Garcia had raised preflop under the gun when "Megas" made it 48,000 to go in the hijack. The action folded back to Garcia, who obliged what a call.

The flop fell 3♦7♠2♥. Garcia checked to "Megas", who committed the rest of his stack. Garcia made an instant call for the 75,000 chips and the cards went face-up.

"Megas": A♥A♣K♥9♦ All in
Cesar Garcia: K♠10♥7♥6♠

The A♠ turn gave "Megas" a set, but Garcia rivered a flush on the 5♠ to win the pot and send his opponent to the rail.

Deniz Sir: A♠J♠6♣4♣ All in
Vasil Medarov: 10♠10♥8♣7♥

Sir needed to fill up against the flush of Medarov. He did not do so on the 7♣3♣ runout and headed to the exit.

Level 6 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Tom-Aksel Bedell raised to 10,000 in the cutoff and received calls from Lautaro Guerra on the button and "Megas" in the small blind.

Sonny Franco then squeezed in a three-bet to 50,000 from the big blind, which was called by all three players.

The J♦A♦7♦ was checked to Guerra, who put in his stack of 91,000. One by one, his opponents mucked their hands as Guerra took down the bloated pot, chipping him up massively.
