Barny Boatman defended his big blind after a raise from Giuliano Bendinelli.
The flop came 4♥J♥4♦ and both players checked to see a 2♥ on the turn.
Boatman then led for 1,100 and got the quick call from Bendinelli.
The river brought the 3♠ and another bet from Boatman eventually got the fold from his opponent.
Thomas Haverstad raised to 900 and found the call from Sean Kauffman who defended his big blind.
The two went to the flop of A♠3♦3♥ and Haverstad 's bet of 1,400 brought the fold from his opponent.
A monotone flop of 2♣6♣5♣ was checked by Axel Hallay in the big blind, and Marcin Kreft checked back from under the gun.
Hallay fired a bet of 2,000 on the 6♥ turn card, and Kreft called.
The 5♠ river paired the board and Hallay fired again for 5,700. Kreft was left in the blender pondering the call. Eventually he tossed in the chips and showed down A♣4♣ for the nut flush which was topped by Hallay's 10♣5♣ for a full house.
