Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
On a board of 7♦9♥K♣5♦ with a sizable pot already brewing, Fintan Hand check-called a 22,000 bet from under the gun against Elias Abussamra, who was directly behind him.
The A♦ completed the board and Hand checked again. Abussamra announced he was all in and Hand snap-called having Abussamra covered.
Abussamra tabled 7♥7♠ for a flopped set of sevens, but they were no good against Hand's Q♦9♦ for a rivered flush and Abussamra was sent to reenter should he choose.
At another table, Enzo Vito also busted.

The action is joined as Fintan Hand makes it 3,000 on the button. Kamal Bejjani raised it to 8,000 and got called.
Bejjani led out for 12,000 on the K♠4♠2♠ flop and got called by Hand.
Both checked the 9♥ turn.
The river was also checked as the 7♦ landed. Hand announced "Ace-high," before Bejjani tabled 9♣5♥. The Lebanese's early aggression in the hand paid off as he chipped up.

It's a classic flip, as the action was joined with Andrii Derzhypilskyi all in against Juan Pardo - with the Ukrainian being at risk of elimination.
Andrii Derzhypilskyi: Q♠Q♦
Juan Pardo: A♦K♣
The flop of 10♠9♦K♥ gave Pardo the lead, but left Derzhypilskyi with straight outs.
A 2♣ didn't help Derzhypilskyi's cause.
The 8♣ completed the board, giving Pardo the pot and eliminating Derzhypilskyi in the process.

Three ways on a board of 6♥8♠7♥K♥, Casper von Schantz was already all in for his short stack against Aurelien Russo and Aliaksei Boika.
Russo was in the big blind and check-called a 5,500 bet from Boika, who was in the hijack, and then both players checked down on the 8♦ river.
Russo turned over 6♣6♠ for a full house, which was good for the pot and elimination of Von Schantz.

Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
The action was joined on the flop of 10♣10♦9♥, as Elias Gutierrez Hernandez in the big blind checked it over to Levan Rcheulishvili in the cutoff. The German bet 4,500, before being raised to 12,000. He called and we saw a turn.
It came J♣, which Hernandez led out for 11,000 and got called by Rcheulishvili.
A 5♥ on the river led to Hernandez shoving all in, having his opponent covered. Rcheulishvili tanked for around three minutes before making the fold, leaving himself with just under ten big blinds.

Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Oleg Vasylchenko opened to 3,500 on the button and was called by Bernd Gleibner in the small blind and Simon Higgins in the big blind.
All three players checked on the K♥J♥4♠ flop and Gleibner checked to Higgins on the Q♦ turn, who bet 8,000. Only Gleibner called.
The 2♣ completed the board and Gleibner checked once more — prompting a 12,000 bet from Higgins. Gleibner announced a raise as he tossed a single chip into the middle and Higgins quickly folded.
"Too many outs," Higgins said.
Gleibner showed the 3♦ as he collected the pot.

Sven Andersson starts the action by opening to 3,500 in the cutoff. His only caller is Fintan Hand in the big blind.
The Irishman checked the 2♥9♦5♠ flop and faced a bet of 6,000 from Andersson. Hand then raised to 13,000 and was called.
Both players checked the 10♣ turn.
It didn't take Andersson long to shove, though, as the 2♣ landed on the river. Hand was covered and had just 22,000 behind, but made the call.
Fintan Hand: 9♥J♠
Sven Andersson: 10♠9♠
Andersson won it, showing he'd rivered two pair and added further to his large stack.
