Serhii Kachynskyi opened to 1,200 in middle position and Emmanuel Wiss and Umberto Zaffagnini both called out of the blinds.

The flop of 7♦K♥9♣ checked through and Wiss led out for 2,500 on the 2♣ turn. Zaffagnini raised to 9,000 and Kachynskyi cold-called before Wiss also called.

Wiss checked on the 6♠ river and Zaffagnini bet a sizable 19,500. Kachynskyi gave it some thought and folded and Wiss followed suit, leading Zaffagnini to turn over Q♠10♦ for a stone bluff with queen-high.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Three-handed on a flop of 9♣K♣10♦, Daniel Esteban bet 7,500 and was called by Timo Scarcella in the hijack before Kasper Wurtz, in the cutoff, moved all in.

Esteban called for his last 24,200, while Scarcella got out of the way.

Daniel Esteban: Q♦J♣
Kasper Wurtz: A♦K♦

"I need some serious help," Wurtz said upon seeing Esteban's flopped straight. The 2♥ turn wasn't what he was looking for as Wurtz was already drawing dead heading to the K♥ river.

"I was so afraid of queen-jack. I should've reraised big time," he added after paying off Esteban.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Nicolas Yunis opened to 2,500 from early position. He got called by Pierre Zerbib and Carlos Leiva in the cutoff and big blind, respectively.

Leiva check-folded when Yunis led out for 3,000 on the A♣3♣J♦ flop, while Zerbib made the call.

The Chilean checked the 10♠ turn and was faced with a bet of 4,500 from Zerbib. Yunis reraised to 9,800 after asking for a count, and got called.

The 6♥ on the river prompted a quick shove from Yunis, making it 7,900 for Zerbib to call. He didn't, and as he sent his hand into the muck heard Yunis exclaim "I had to go all in."

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Heads-up on a board of 9♠3♥4♥2♦, Timo Scarcella bet 5,000 from the big blind before Andras Balogh, in early position, moved all in for around 15,000 more.

Scarcella snap-called with 9♣9♥ for a set, while Balogh turned over A♥Q♥ for the nut flush draw and a straight draw. He needed to hit to stay alive, but the river came the K♠ as Balogh missed everything and headed for the rail.
