Markku Koplimaa opened to 65,000 from middle position and was three-bet to 150,000 by Thomas Boivin in the cutoff. Action folded back around to Koplimaa, who made the call.
The flop came A♦9♥J♥ and Koplimaa checked to Boivin, who sized down for a 100,000 bet. Koplimaa tanked up until he would have been forced to use a time extension before folding and Boivin dragged the pot.
Ido Aboudi was all in for the last of his stack on the outer feature table while Sandor Hadnagy was the one to put him at risk. The cards were already turned up and the dealer was waiting for the signal.
Ido Aboudi: K♣Q♠
Sandor Hadnagy: 10♣10♦
The board ran out 4♥2♠10♠2♠J♠ and Hadnagy flopped a set of tens to secure Aboudi's elimination.
Elsewhere, Vlantouts Kourka and Benjamin Winsor have been eliminated.
On a flop of A♦6♦3♠, Markku Koplimaa checked and Eduard Barsegyan fired a bet of 45,000 across the line. Koplimaa made the call.
The 4♣ turn and 4♠ river were checked down and Koplimaa tabled K♦Q♦ missing a flush draw before Barsegyan showed 7♣7♦.
The following hand, Barsegyan opened from middle position and Daniyar Aubakirov defended the big blind.
When the Q♠J♣3♦ flop hit the felt, Aubakirov quickly check-folded to a bet of 45,000 from Barsegyan.
Level: 24
Blinds: 15,000/30,000

The PokerStars North American Poker Tour (NAPT) is returning after a 12-year hiatus, and where better to get the show on the road than fabulous Las Vegas? November 4-12 are the dates to highlight in your diaries because that is when NAPT Las Vegas heads to Resorts World in "Sin City."
The 2023 NAPT Las Vegas takes place just one week before the most anticipated Formula 1 Grand Prix in history, which takes place through the streets of Las Vegas. PokerStars will be there, Oracle Red Bull Racing will be there, will you?
The final 41 players are now on their third 20-minute break of the day.
Simon Wiciak opened to 50,000 from early position, then Benjamin Winsor in the hijack three-bet to 150,000. In the cutoff, Pablo Melogno decided to four-bet all in to 540,000. Wiciak asked for the count, then raised all in and made Winsor fold.
Pablo Melogno: Q♥Q♦
Simon Wiciak: A♣K♥
The board 5♦4♥10♥5♥4♦ was low, so Melogno's queens held and he doubled up just before the break.
João Sydenstricker raised 55,000 in the hijack before Wouter Beltz three-bet 160,000 on the button. Sydenstricker stuck around with a call.
The dealer spread a flop of J♣9♥9♠ and Sydenstricker quickly check-folded to a bet of 90,000 from Beltz.
Benjamin Gros opened to 50,000 from early position and was called by João Sydenstricker on the button and Wouter Beltz in the big blind.
Beltz checked to Gros on the 8♦Q♥9♥ flop and he continued for 40,000. Sydenstricker folded, but Gros then check-raised to 205,000. Gros called.
Beltz fired 415,000 into the middle on the 10♣ turn and Gros again called.
The 2♦ completed the board and Beltz checked over to Gros, who bet 450,000. Beltz called rather quickly and Gros turned over A♥6♥ for a whiffed flush draw. Betlz tabled J♣10♥ for a flopped straight and the large pot was sent his way.
