Nick Petrangelo bet 3,500 from the cutoff on a flop of Q♥10♥8♦ and Niklas Astedt called in the big blind.
Petrangelo bet another 21,000 on the J♣ turn and Astedt again called. The river was the 4♦ and Petrangelo fired out 63,000.
Astedt burned through multiple time banks before eventually calling as Petrangelo turned over 9♠7♠ for a straight to win the big pot.
Teun Mulder raised to 6,000 from under the gun, receiving calls from the button, small blind and big blind.
All four players checked the 5♥K♣J♠ flop through to the 4♣ on the turn. Steve O'Dwyer, in the big blind, took the lead for 11,000. Mulder raised to 45,000 and only O'Dwyer called.
The 10♠ river saw O'Dwyer play in flow. Mulder placed a bet large enough to put O'Dwyer all in for his effective stack of approximately 135,000, earning a snap-fold.

The remaining 16 players have been sent on their second 20-minute break of the day.
Niklas Astedt raised to 5,000 from under the gun and Mikael Thuritz three-bet to 20,000 from the small blind. Astedt called.
The 4♦5♣Q♥ flop checked through to the 9♥ on the turn and the 6♥ on the river. Both players checked to a showdown.
"Ace-king," announced Thuritz, prompting Astedt to table 3♦3♠ for an unpair to the board; good enough to take down this pot.
Kayhan Mokri and Santhosh Suvarna built a pot of around 90,000 as they saw a flop of 9♠7♠4♥. Mokri then bet 30,000 from the cutoff and Suvarna called on the button.
The turn was the 9♣ and Mokri bet another 35,000. Suvarna quickly folded and Mokri added to his big stack.
In a blind versus blind battle, Mikael Thuritz bet 15,000 on a flop of Q♣10♣5♥ and Mike Watson called.
The turn was the A♥ and Thuritz bet 19,000. Watson again called and the 10♥ fell on the river. Thuritz then moved all in and Watson called for around 50,000 more.
Thuritz showed 10♦5♦ for a full house and Watson tossed J♥10♠ into the muck as he made his way to the rail.
Thomas Santerne raised from the button to 5,000 and Byron Kaverman defended in the big blind.
Both players checked to the river as the full board now read 10♥6♠4♠6♦J♣. Kaverman led out for 2,500 and Santerne called. Kaverman tabled K♥4♥ for bottom pair, winning him this pot.
