: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
With around 7,000 chips already in the middle on a board of 7♦6♦4♦9♣, Kenan Tacar checked it over to Georgios Vrakas, who fired 2,600. Tacar called.
A 10♦ river put four diamonds on the board, and after Tacar checked, Vrakas fired 3,800. Tacar immediately announced a call then Vrakas showed A♦5♦ for the nut flush. Tacar showed that he had rivered a flush with A♣J♦, then tossed his cards into the muck.

On a flop of 8♦6♣8♥, both Arno Thuy and Vedat Levi had put in 800 to see the 2♠ drop on the turn, where Thuy check-called a bet of 1,200 from Levi.
The Q♣ landed on the river and it was quickly checked to showdown where Thuy tabled 9♥9♦ for the winner, as Levi mucked.

There were already around 10,000 chips in the pot on a board of 8♠K♥2♣7♦ when Semen Kravats checked it over to Andy Graf, who fired 3,000. Kravats responded with an all-in wager for around 24,500, which sent Graf into the tank.
After quite some time, Graf reluctantly folded, and Kravats was pushed the pot.
