The 6♣ landed on the river. This time, Cessy led out with a bet of 16,200. Wyrzykiewicz quickly folded and let the pot go in Cessy's direction.

Mykola Maliuta opened to 2,400 from under the gun. Justin Tsui raised to 6,500 in early position and was called by the Ukrainian.
The 2♦9♣A♠ flop was checked by Maliuta, who then called a bet of 4,000, as Tsui continued his aggression.
Maliuta checked once more as the 5♣ landed on the turn. This time, Tsui made it 11,000, which saw him get a fold from his opponent. The Englishman chipped up to well above average stack, while Maliuta still sat on a big stack of 125,000.

Omar Eljach opened to 2,600 first-to-act and was called by Pascal Hocquard from middle position. It was then folded to Enrico Fiorentin in the big blind, who shoved for his last 10,400. Eljach called to put Fiorentin at risk and Hocquard got out of the way.
Enrico Fiorentin: 8♣8♠
Omar Eljach: 10♠10♦
The 9♣Q♠8♥ flop vaulted Fiorentin into the lead with a set and his double up seemed imminent after the A♣ fell on the turn.
It wasn't meant to be, however, as the 10♣ river provided Eljach with a winning set of tens to eliminate Fiorentin.

Hrayr Grigoryan opened to 2,600 from under the gun, and he was called by both Akseli Paalanen to his left and Candido Cappiello in the cutoff. However, Daniele Todeschini wanted more, so he raised all-in for his last 9,300 chips from the small blind. Then Grigoryan four-bet to 20,000, and made Paalanen and Cappiello fold.
Daniele Todeschini: K♠10♥
Hrayr Grigoryan: A♠K♣
Todeschini stood up and wished good luck to the table before an ace on the board of 9♠4♠9♦A♣4♥ confirmed his elimination.

Picking up the action on a flop of 4♠7♣10♠, Will Kassouf fired out a bet of 9,600. Ilya Gorodetskiy three-bet jammed all-in for 27,000 and Andrey Golubev moved all-in for 32,000.
Kassouf briefly pondered his decision, before muttering "I don't see how I can fold this hand.", and made the call. Kassouf covered both players.
Andrey Golubev: 4♣10♥
Ilya Gorodetskiy: 8♠6♠
Will Kassouf: 4♣4♥
Kassouf was ahead with a set of fours against the two pair of Golubev, and the huge draw of Gorodetskiy.
The Q♠ turn propelled Gorodetskiy into the lead with a flush. Kassouf implored the dealer to pair the board on the river but the 5♣ changed nothing and sent a significant pot to Gorodetskiy, while sending Golubev to the exit.
Kassouf picked up a 20,000 side pot to slightly reduce the pain of this huge cooler.
