Toni Kaukua had his stack of around 500,000 in the middle preflop, and was put at risk by Alf Martinsson.
Toni Kaukua: K♣J♣
Alf Martinsson: 9♦9♣
Kaukua needed to win a flip to remain in contention, but never improved as the 4♥A♦3♣7♠Q♦ runout meant he was eliminated in the closing stages of the day.

Akinobu Maeda raised to 60,000 in the cutoff and was three-bet to 160,000 by Georgios Tsouloftas on the button.
Maeda made the call to the 3♣K♣7♥ flop, where he check-called the bet of 110,000 that Tsouloftas put in the middle.
The 4♠ turn was then checked through before Tsouloftas bet 350,000 on the J♣ river. Maeda shoved all in for 1,000,000 in response. Tsouloftas spent a short while in the tank before flicking in a calling chip.
Maeda tabled 5♦5♣ for a pair of fives. Tsouloftas had that beat with K♥Q♣ for top pair, raking in the big pot and ending up with more than 100 big blinds in his stack.

Marian Virlanuta raised to 60,000 in the cutoff. Igor Abelmasov called in the small blind before Guillermo Gordo three-bet all in for 475,000 in the big blind.
Virlanuta quickly folded but Abelmasov threw in a call.
Guillermo Gordo: A♣10♣
Igor Abelmasov: 3♦3♣
Gordo flopped some extra outs on 5♥Q♠K♣, but neither his gutshot nor his pairs came in on the 2♣ turn or 9♠ river. He booked his exit while Abelmasov added more chips to his huge stack.

Gary Banks moved all in from early position for 210,000. Action folded around to Bobby James who contemplated the call. He ultimately flicked in the chips.
Gary Banks: K♦J♥
Bobby James: J♦8♣
"That's bad for me," said James before the dealer fanned the 8♥J♠7♥. Then he changed his tone, adding, "That's better for me." His two pair held across the 5♣ turn and 2♥ river to send Banks to the rail.

Stoyan Madanzhiev had gone all in for 425,000 from the hijack and was called by Muhtar Taysi under the gun.
Stoyan Madanzhiev: 9♠9♥
Muhtar Taysi: A♥A♣
The A♠K♥K♦ left Madanzhiev needing a miracle, but the A♦ turn made Taysi four of a kind to seal the deal. The 6♦ river did not matter as Madanzhiev dejectedly left the tournament area.

Roman Korenev opened to 50,000 from middle position and short-stacked Julien Brecard defended his big blind, with about 120,000 left behind.
On the J♠10♦9♠ flop, Brecard checked to his opponent. Korenev fired out a bet of 150,000, and Brecard got the rest of his chips into the middle.
Julien Brecard: Q♣J♦
Roman Korenev: A♥K♠
Brecard was ahead with top pair jacks but still had outs to fade.
The Q♥ rolled off on the turn to put Korenev in front with the nut straight, and the K♥ river completed the board, confirming Brecard's fate.

Aleksandr Razinkov opened to 55,000 from middle position and Christian Steindel shoved from the cutoff for 365,000. Radoslav Stoyanov then shoved from the small blind for around 1,400,000, which got Razinkov to fold.
Christian Steindel: K♣K♦
Radoslav Stoyanov A♣K♠
Steindel was in a great spot to double up, but that turned into an extremely unlikely scenario after the flop of 9♠A♠4♠ left him with just one out, as Stoyanov paired his ace and flopped a flush draw.
No miracle one-outer appeared on either the 6♣ turn or A♦ river, which meant Steindel was eliminated.
