Three players saw the A♥J♦5♠ flop, and Malik Nouri checked before Gary Whitehead tossed a bet of 2,600 into the pot of 6,300. Roberto Begni was next to act and made the call before Nouri released his hand.
The A♠ fell on the turn and Whitehead continued for 5,600. Begni pushed his entire stack of about 29,000 across the line, putting Whitehead into the tank for almost two minutes. Eventually, Whitehead called off his stack of roughly 20,000 and both hands were on their backs.
Gary Whitehead: A♣6♣
Roberto Begni: 5♣5♦
It was a nasty turn for Whitehead as he made trip aces, but Begni was in the lead with his fives full of aces. The 7♣ river changed nothing as Whitehead exited the table.

With about 6,500 in the middle the flop read 8♦7♣6♠, and Pieter Theelen checked from the big blind before Tarik Ozdemir fired a bet of 2,500. Theelen called.
When the 7♠ paired the turn, Theelen took the lead, tossing 1,500 across the line, and that was enough for Ozdemir to surrender his hand.

Vojtech Kratochvil opened to 1,600 from middle position and action folded to Tekeshi Takahashi in the small blind, who shoved for approximately 26,000. Just behind him, Fabian Rolli also shoved for a bit less and Kratochvil called to put both players at risk.
Fabian Rolli: A♦K♦
Tekeshi Takahashi: A♥K♠
Vojtech Kratochvil: A♠A♣
It was the best possible scenario for Kratochvil, who was an overwhelming favorite headed to the flop.
The 5♦6♥7♦ flop gave Rolli hope with a flush draw, but the 9♥ turn and 3♥ river bricked out and Kratochvil collected the rest of both Takahashi's and Rolli's chips.

A pot of 18,000 chips was in the middle when Istvan Pilhofer moved all in for 20,100 on a board of 8♣4♥Q♥A♣. Virgil Grecu made the call from under the gun, resulting in a heads up showdown.
Istvan Pilhofer: Q♠8♠
Virgil Grecu: A♦K♥
Grecu's pair needed to improve to win the pot, but the 8♥ river did the opposite. Pilhofer raked in a double with his full house, while Grecu was left with just a few big blinds.
