Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Aliaksandr Yarosh raised to 3,500 from middle position, Atanas Pavlov three-bet to 13,000 from the small blind. Georgy Komarov then four-bet to 32,500 from the big blind and Yarosh five-bet all in. Pavlov got out of the way and Komarov announced his call for 125,000.

Players flipped their cards, with Komarov at risk.

Georgy Komarov: K♥K♠ All in
Aliaksandr Yarosh: K♦K♣

Players at the table laughed as Komarov and Yarosh revealed the same hand, but the laughter quickly turned to tense gasps and then cheers as the board ran out 4♥3♠6♠J♠9♠ to give Komarov a flush draw on the turn and a flush on the river.

Komarov scored a huge double as his kings cracked Yarosh's kings.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The action was picked up with around 20,000 in the middle and two players looking at a board of 2♦K♣10♦4♥

Fabio Peluso's button wager of 17,000 was facing a raise to 48,000 from Alexander Savchenko, who was in the big blind.

Peluso thought for so long that Nick Palma, a neutral player at the table, called the clock, eventually prompting him to fold. Palma pressured Savchenko to tell the table what he had.

"No bluff," was Savchenko's only reply.

Fabio Peluso	135,000 135,000	135,000

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The pot stood at 10,500 with two players looking at a board of 9♣3♣K♥5♣.

Dmitry Yurasov, in the big blind, bet out 3,500. Sergi Reixach, in early position, raised to 12,000. Yurasov responded with a reraise to 27,000 and Reixach called.

The 4♠ river saw Yurasov move all in for 58,000. Reixach, pained by his decision, spent servral minutes in the tank, clearly on the edge of a fold. Ultimately, Reixach made the call.

Dmitry Yurasov: 6♦4♣ All in
Sergi Reixach: 5♠5♥

Yurasov got caught by Reixach's set, sending him to the rail. As Yurasov exited the tournament floor, Reixach discussed with Dario Sammartino, who was also at the table, that he liked Yursaov's line.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Espen Oeye jammed from the cutoff for a sizeable wager of 70,000. Aleksandr Kirichenko, in the big blind, went deep into the tank, eventually announcing, "Crazy call!" as he committed the remainder of his stack.

Aleksandr Kirichenko: K♦Q♠ All in
Espen Oeye: A♠5♠

The flop landed A♥J♦7♥ giving Oeye top pair, but Kirichenko was drawing to Broadway. The 8♠ turn and Q♣ river changed nothing and Kirichenko was sent to the rail.

A neutral player at the table explained this wasn't the first time Oeye had gone all in with such a big stack.

Action was on the flop on a board of 6♠2♥7♥ and Yafa Saada bet 6,000. Ivan Pavlov moved all in for 24,000 and Saada called.

Pavlov had J♥10♥ for a flush draw with overcards. Saada had 7♣5♣ for a pair of sevens.

The turn was the 5♥ to give Pavlov a flush and Saada two pair. The river came the 5♦ and Saada spiked another card to give her a full house. She won the pot and Pavlov was eliminated.

Thibaut Triple Barrels and Klein Takes the Gift

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Following a middle position open-raise, Moussa Thibaut three-bet to 7,000 from the next seat across, Morten Klein called in late position, and the original raiser folded.

The flop came K♣J♦7♦ and Thibaut continued for 11,000, which Klein called. The turn was the K♥ and Thibaut made it 22,000 to go, which Klein quickly called again.

The river was the J♥ and Thibaut took a moment before pushing all in for around 50,000-60,000 chips. Klein didn't need any time to think before making the call.

Thibaut stood up instantly as he turned over A♦5♦ for a busted flush draw that he'd turned into a bluff. Klein had A♥K♠ for a full house, kings full of jacks to win the pot. He stared in disbelief as the chips were pushed over to him.

"A gift," said a neutral player.

"What a crazy hand," said Klein as he added to his stack, which he'd built into huge towers of chips that equated to around 300,000.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Baris Kavuk limped in for 1,500 under the gun. Morten Klein called on the button and Emanuel Turcan completed in the small. Fabrice Maltez checked his option.

The 4♦4♣7♠ flop was checked around before Turcan asked whether he could fold on the 9♥ turn. The dealer clarified he can still open-fold if he wishes, but gave Turcan the option to check. Ultimately Turcan parted with his hand. Maltez then bet 3,000. Kavuk called; Klein and Turcan folded.

Maltez then barreled again on the 7♥ river for 8,000. Kavuk called and his Q♣9♣ was bested by Maltez's rivered full house with Q♠7♣.
