Henok Tekle opened from early position to 250,000. Action folded around to Ryhor Karapanau who put Tekle all in. He made the call.
Henok Tekle: A♣10♠
Ryhor Karapanau: A♠Q♠
Tekle was dominated but the Q♦9♣8♥ gave him outs to a straight against flopped top pair. Ultimately he couldn't find a jack on the 7♦ turn or the 7♥ river and Karapanau claimed his stack and the bounty chip.
Stoyan Obreshkov opened from the button to 60,000. Roman Shcherbakov went into the tank before the clock was called. As the floor approached he made the call.
Roman Shcherbakov: A♣9♣
Stoyan Obreshkov: A♠5♠
The 4♣6♥3♠ gave Obreshkov a straight draw. The Q♣ changed nothing but Obreshkov got there on the 2♦ river to make a six high straight.
Action was on the flop on a board of 5♣3♦8♣ and Andras Nemeth pushed all in for 370,000. Patrick Leonard shrugged and then made the call with the covering stack.
Leonard had A♠K♣ for two overcards to the board and Nemeth turned over 7♠5♠ for a pair of fives with gutshot outs to the straight.
The turn was the 9♥ and river the 6♠ and Nemeth further improved to a straight to double up his stack.

Azamat Tulepbergenov: K♦10♠
Stoyan Obreshkov: K♣Q♥
