Ludovic Geilich opened the action with a raise to 27,000 under the gun and action made its way around to Bhavin Khatri, who three-bet all in for 158,000. Geilich deliberated for a few moments after action was back upon him and eventually decided on a call.
Bhavin Khatri:
Ludovic Geilich: 
The flop came 
, causing Khatri to say that he needed to see black cards. The dealer complied on the turn, bringing 
onboard.
"One more black card," requested Khatri. The river came to give Geilich a flush, but it also improved Khatri to a full house and scored him the double as a result.

Hand #1:

Simon Lofberg:
Rainer Kempe: 
Lofberg was out in front and remained there the whole way as the board ran out 
en route to a double, leaving Kempe with about 285,000 behind.
Hand #2
On the very next hand, Artem Khachaturov shoved all in for about 250,000 from the hijack and Kempe went all in over the top from the cutoff. Everybody else folded and the two were off to the races.
Artem Khachaturov:
Rainer Kempe:
Kempe hit a king on the flop after not getting one on the previous runout, with the board coming 
to result in Kempe's kings toasting Khachaturov's sixes to spell for his exit from the tournament in 25th place.
The tournament clock has now been paused for a full three-table redraw. Seating assignments and chip counts for the final 24 will be posted shortly.

Bhavin Khatri went all in for his last 72,000 in the cutoff and action made its way around to Viktor Ustimov, who called from the big blind.
Bhavin Khatri: 
Viktor Ustimov:
Khatri was out in front but needed to fade Ustimov's two live cards to stay alive. The flop 
took away one of those outs as he picked up the nut flush draw, but he wouldn't need it as the turn and river left Ustimov's hand unmade, giving Khatri an unnecessary pair of aces en route to a much-needed double. Ustimov shipped some T25,000 chips Khatri's way to pay the double.
"It doesn't feel like a double with these chips," said Khatri with a laugh and a smile. He then got back to business: "Live to fight another day," he announced as the next hand began.
