With a pot totaling 200,000 already in the middle, Eran Carmi made a small bet of 40,000 under the gun. Robert Cowen sat next to him and made the call before the 4♦ fell on the river.
Carmi sized up to 250,000, this time receiving a quick fold from Cowen and taking down the pot.
Blaz Zerjav limped in from middle position and Daniel Tordjman followed suit in the cutoff. Manuel Fischer then raised to 27,000 in the hijack, which Zerjav three-bet to 96,000.
Tordjman got out of the way before Fischer jammed in his stack of 391,000. Zerjav made a quick call with the covering stack and the cards hit their backs.
Manuel Fischer: A♠A♥A♦8♦ 
Blaz Zerjav: A♣J♠K♣2♠
The dealer put a straight flush in the middle of the table with 5♥7♥8♥6♥9♥ hitting the felt. However, as players need to use two cards from their hand, Fischer's aces took down the pot and doubled him up.

"Diego Armando" was one of the newest additions to the field when they got involved in a blind-on-blind pot against Aaron Pahlawani. On the 10♠6♠7♦6♦J♠ river, Pahlawani checked to "Diego Armando", who made a pot-sized bet of 28,000.
Pahlawani then raised to 80,000, which "Diego Armando" shrugged off and called. Pahlawani briefly flashed kings before "Diego Armando" tabled A♠J♥7♠3♥ as he took down the pot with his flush.
Aaron Pahlawani raised to 14,000 on the button and Ronald Keijzer called in the small blind after some consideration. Danielle Noja then three-bet to 56,000 in the big blind, which only Keijzer called.
Keijzer checked to Noja on the 6♥6♠10♠ flop, after which the latter moved in for 79,000. Keijzer made a quick call and the cards were tabled.
Danielle Noja: A♦K♦K♣8♥
Ronald Keijzer: A♠10♣8♦7♠
Keijzer's flush completed on the J♥5♠ runout, cracking the kings of Noja and sending him to the rail.
Ronald Keijzer was seen betting out of the small blind for 18,000 on a flop of 10♦7♣10♥. His opponent, "Alakazam", put in a call, and did so too when Keijzer sized up to 60,000 on the 3♦ turn.
The 2♥ river completed the board. Keijzer eyed the stack of "Alakazam" before sliding in 210,000 chips, the majority of "Alakazam"s stack.
"Alakazam" let go of his hand after little thought and saw the pot being awarded to Keijzer.
Level: 6
Blinds: 2,000/4,000
