A raising war between Dario Nittolo (cutoff) and Jan Skampa (small blind) culminated with Skampa moving all in. Nittolo gave it some very serious thought, attracting a swarm of media personnel who milled around the table waiting for a showdown - but he eventually folded, and the swarm dispersed.
Apo Arslan shoved for not very much at all; Dario Nittolo called in the small blind. Arslan turned over before the big blind had called, to the panic of the dealer; the big blind eventually folded, though, and they were on their backs.
First into the pot, Yulius Sepman open-shoved his last 64,000 chips into the middle of the table. In the small blind, Florian Langmann asked for the count before making the call, and he was heads up with a chance to knock out a player.
Sepman tabled , and he was flipping a coin for his survival against the German pro's .
The flop was a decent find for the at-risk player as it came down . The on the turn wasn't a great card for him, though, and the on the river was even worse. Both players end with queens and sevens, but Langmann's ace kicker players to send another player to the rail.
Fionn MacNamara raised to 16,000 and got a call from the button. Jerome Zerbib reraised to 55,000 from the small blind, MacNamara went all in, Mr. Button wisely got out of the way, Zerbib INSTA-called, an we had ourselves a showdown.
