Heads-up on a flop of 6♥K♣A♠, Yisrael Sela continued for 3,000 after he opened preflop from the hijack. Michail Dalakis, who defended from the big blind, check-called, and check-called again when Sela bet 4,500 on the turn A♥.
The 7♠ came on the river, but both players checked. Sela was the first one to flip over his cards, revealing K♥J♦ for two pair. Dalakis had K♦3♠ for two pair as well, but his kicker was too low to win this pot.

Paul Newey raised to 4,500 from the cutoff, and faced Jonas Klaus who defended from the big blind.
The flop came 7♣K♦4♠, with Newey continuing for 3,500. Klaus check-called, then checked on the turn 2♥. Newey checked back, and there was no more action on the river 2♥, as both players checked again.
"Deuce" said Klause while revealing A♣2♣. Newey's cards went directly into the muck.

Shmuel Goldenberg opened to 4,500 from the hijack, and Rostyslav Sabishchenko in the cutoff was the only one to call.
After the dealer fanned a flop of 9♦8♠4♥, Goldenberg bet 13,500 and was called. Then on the turn 2♠, he fired a second barrel of 25,500. Sabishchenko called once again.
The Q♦ came on the river, and Goldenberg moved all-in for approximately 50,000. Sabishchenko folded, saying that the river was "the worst card" for him.
