With around 40,000 in the pot on a flop of 9♠5♦3♦, Stefan Lehner bet 17,000 from the button and Sercan Yasav called in early position.
The turn came the J♥ and Lehner bet another 32,500. Yasav then moved all in for around 70,000 and Lehner quickly called with K♥K♠.
Yasav turned over A♦J♦ for a pair and nut flush draw but missed the 4♠ river as he was sent to the rail.
At the same time at an adjacent table, Ramon Kropmanns and Harout Ghazarian were tangling in a massive pot that saw 65,000 already in the middle on a board of K♥K♣Q♣2♠.
Ghazarian bet 19,000 from under the gun and Kropmanns called in middle position. The river came the 3♣ and Kropmanns called for his last 55,000.
Ghazarian was forced to show just 4♥4♦, while Kropmanns had 10♣8♣ for a rivered flush to double up and leave Ghazarian with crumbs.

Abulmuhsin Aydin: A♦7♣
Agharazi Babayev: K♥Q♦

Jachimavicius then moved all in under the gun and Beresford called for his last 24,500. Jachimavicius turned over Q♦Q♥, while Beresford had 3♦2♦ and needed help.
"I need to stand up, right," Beresford said, rising from his seat to await the river which came the 2♣. Beresford improved to two pair and doubled up, leaving Jachimavicius riding an extreme short stack.

Heads-up on a flop of 2♥4♥K♥, Pablo Brito Silva bet 3,000 from the hijack and Yucel Eminoglu then raised to 8,000 in the cutoff.
Brito Silva called to see the 3♦ turn, where Eminoglu continued for 14,000. Brito Silva laid down his hand this time.
"I flopped the nuts," Eminoglu said, showing Brito Silva his cards.
"Wrong color," Brito Silva replied as Eminoglu realized he had A♦J♦ instead of hearts.
"I thought I had the nuts. I wouldn't have raised you," Eminoglu said.
