Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Ionut-Lician Colciar shoved for his last 6,100 from early position and was called by Gonzalo Leal Moreno in the hijack. Everyone else folded and a showdown was held.
Ionut-Lician Colciar: A♥Q♦
Gonzalo Leal Moreno: A♦10♥
Colciar had Leal dominated, and the 9♦4♠3♦7♥7♣ runout kept Colciar's queen kicker best for the double up.

A preflop raising war culminated in Darius Gadeikis jamming with the covering stack and Gregoire Auzoux calling off for his 36,400 stack.
Gregoire Auzoux: J♦J♥
Darius Gadeikis: Q♠Q♦
Auzoux had walked into an overpair, but the J♠10♠4♣ flop put him front with top set jacks, a position that was not altered by the 8♣8♠ turn and river, Auzoux ending up with a full house.

Arriving on a completed board of J♠7♥6♠9♦J♥, Karen Nazarian had jammed all in covering the 30,800 of Adrian Cazacu.
With there only being 19,000 in the middle, Nazarian's shove was a huge bet. Cazacu clarified the reentry rules before slamming in a stack of chips for the call.
Nazarian tossed K♠Q♦ in the middle. King-high was no good as Cazacu had called with A♥6♥ for bottom pair, taking down the pot and doubling up.

Nicolae Paunescu kicked things off with a raise to 1,500 from early position, attracting two callers. Bernhard Binder, seated on the button, raised to 4,200. Paunescu folded, then Ran Azor pushed all in for his last 10,800, causing Dmitry Zakharov to fold, while Binder made the call, setting the stage for a showdown.
Ran Azor: A♣Q♥
Berhard Binder: K♠J♦
The flop came down Q♠7♣J♥, giving both players a pair, but Azor was still in the lead. Binder's hand didn't improve on the 7♥ turn or the 7♠ river, allowing Azor to double up while leaving Binder with just a few chips.

Uladzmir Zhyharau opened to 1,300 from early position, and was met with a three-bet to 3,000 by Cindy Kerslake in middle position.
Action folded back to Zhyharau, who quickly moved all in with the covering stack. Kerslake rapidly got the remainder of her 13,800 total stack into the middle.
Cindy Kerslake: J♠J♥
Uladzmir Zhyharau: A♠Q♣
Kerslake was ahead in a race, but that didn't last beyond the K♠Q♠4♣ flop, which put her opponent in front with a pair of queens.
The 3♣ turn was a brick, and the A♦ river improved Zhyharau further to two pair, sending him the pot and sending Kerslake to the rail.

Picking up the action on a turn of 6♠4♣10♠5♠, a big pot of 22,000 was in the making between Miroslav Alilovic under the gun and Denis Vlasov in early position.
Alilovic tossed in a tiny bet of 2,000, which Vlasov called. The 9♠ then hit the river and saw Alilovic make a more sizable bet of 14,000. After a while, Vlasov called.
Alilovic instantly mucked his cards and the pot was awarded to Vlasov without either playing showing their holding.

Action folded to Artem Belinskii on the button, who opened to 1,300. Leonid Orman was in the big blind, and after some time for thought, he three-bet jammed for 12,000. Belinskii didn't seem to like it much but made the call.
Leonid Orman: A♠K♥
Artem Belinskii: A♦9♣
Orman had his opponent's ace dominated, and almost had a lock on the hand after the A♣K♦2♠ flop provided him with top two pair.
His opponent was now drawing to running nines, and they did not arrive on the 6♥5♣ turn and river.

Julien Sitbon moved all in from the cutoff for his last 6,400, and Mariusz Mikoda, seated on the button, called. But Majid Ejlal Noubarian, in the small blind, had other plans and raised it up to 18,400, which was enough to make Mikoda fold and send it to a heads-up showdown.
Sitbon asked, "Ace-king one time?"—and he was spot on, as Noubarian revealed A♣K♥. Sitbon showed 7♠7♥, setting up the classic flip.
The flop came down 9♥J♥9♦, keeping Sitbon ahead, and the 7♦ on the turn locked up his double-up.
The 6♥ river changed nothing, leaving Noubarian without any improvement, while Sitbon breathed new life into his tournament run.
