Rupert Elder has just been giving Dimitris Mpinas a bit of a kicking in the last couple of hands. First, Mpinas made it 25,000 UTG and then folded 
face up when Elder made it 58,000 next to him.
Two hands later and Mpinas raised to 26,000 in the small blind and Elder called to see a flop of 

. Mpinas continued with a 36,000 bet and Elder flat-called to see the
turn, Mpinas quickly checked and Elder pushed out a bet of 47,000 but Mpinas now check-raised to 105,000.
Elder thought for about 30 seconds before saying, "I'm all in."
Mpinas snap-folded.

The very next hand saw Dimitris Mpinas raised to 25,000 on the button and Fahredin Mustafov moved all in for just over 200,000 from the big blind. Mpinas made a fairly speedy call with 
and Mustafov laughed upon seeing his opponent's cards while he himself showed 
, the Bulgarian presumably of the opinion that Mpinas was slightly tilted by losing consecutive pots to Elder.
The board was 



- no paint for Mustafov who goes home in 19th place.

Frederic Hebette has had a volatile day today.
Hand 1
Florian Schleps raised to 24,000 in the hijack seat and Hebette defended his big blind. The dealer gave us a flop of
and Hebette check-called a 37,000 Schleps bet. The turn of
was checked through by both parties and the final card was the
. Hebette was next to act and he made a slight overbet of of 140,000 and Schleps folded very quickly.
"I am not calling overbets from you anymore," said Schleps.
"Good, that is what I was hoping," said Hebette.
Hand 2
Pierre Mothes raised to 28,000 in the cutoff and Hebette cold called on the button. The flop was
and Mothes bet 39,000 and Hebette called. The turn was next and we saw the
, Mothes checked to Hebette who bet 66,000 and a quick all-in from Mothes shut down any further action from Hebette.
"Nice float Frederic," said Mothes.

Koen De Visscher opened to 25,000 preflop and Pim van Riet made the call before Zimnan Ziyard reraised to 65,000 out of the big blind. De Visscher reraised to 122,000 and van Riet folded but Zimnan Ziyard tanked for a minute before making the call.
The flop was 

and Ziyard check-raised the Belgian's 84,000 bet to 170,000 but De Visscher moved all in for 213,000 more.
Ziyard stated, "It's only the top two hands that beat me..."
Eventually he called for most of his remaining stack and flipped 
, De Visscher showed 
and was in desperate need of an ace or king but the
turn and
river changed nothing.
Ziyard breaks the seven-figure mark.
