Murad Akhundov, who finished fourth in the €50,000 Single-Day High Roller a few days ago, has entered and took the seat that previously belonged to Charlie Carrel. Salman Behbehani is a new entry while Isaac Haxton, Stephen Chidwick and Patrick Bruel are quite short.

Bruel defended his big blind and checked down a board {Q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} until the river before folding to a bet after the last community card. Haxton bet a four-way hand on the {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Diamonds} turn for 4,000 and his opponents folded.

Last but not least, Rainer Kempe opened to 1,500 and Steve O'Dwyer made it 4,000 to go from one seat over. Chidwick four-bet all in for 20,875 and got through with the move as Kempe and O'Dwyer released their cards.
