Andrea Dato had 9♥9♦ under the gun and decided to raise to 60,000. Lander Lijo flatted A♣Q♠ in the small blind as the two went to a flop of J♠10♥Q♦.
Lijo checked to Dato, who bet 45,000. Lijo called and saw the 5♦ turn emerge from the deck. He checked again and Dato checked back.
The 6♦ completed the board on the river. Lijo bet out for 175,000. Dato pondered his options for a bit but settled on a fold as he forfeited the pot.
The action folded around to Adrien Quetelart in the small blind, who shoved for around 170,000. Timo Kamphues snap-called from the big blind.
Adrien Quetelart: Q♥10♣ 
Timo Kamphues: K♦7♦
Quetelart was live and did pair his queen on the Q♦8♦K♣ flop, but Kamphues paired his king and picked up a flush draw. The 6♠ river changed nothing, and neither did the J♣ river, which meant Quetelart was eliminated.
Andrea Dato raised to 60,000 in the hijack and saw Chakib Mhiri defend in the big blind. Dato bet 55,000 on the 8♦9♣K♣ flop and Mhiri check-called.
The A♥ turn and 5♠ river were checked down. Mhiri revealed Q♣5♣ for bottom pair while Dato's 10♦10♣ won him the pot.
In a limped pot between the blinds, Stefan Toderita bet 30,000 on a flop of A♦10♣5♦ and Oliver Weis called.
Toderita bet another 60,000 on the J♣ turn and Weis again called. Both players then checked down the 7♠ river.
Weis showed A♥2♥ for a pair of aces and Toderita mucked.
Anton Wigg found K♦5♦ on the button and raised to 65,000. Artsiom Lasouski called his big blind with A♥5♥ before he check-called Wigg's bet of 80,000 on the 3♥2♣8♠ flop.
The 7♥ fell on the turn. Lasouski checked again, after which Wigg bet 200,000. Lasouski quickly jammed his combo draw and saw Wigg snap-fold his king-high.
Mikhail Shalamov opened to 60,000 from middle position and Yisha Chen called in the cutoff before Halil Tasyurek shoved for 425,000 from the button. Once the action got back to Shalamov, he shoved, and Chen folded.
Halil Tasyurek: A♣K♠
Mikhail Shalamov: A♦J♠
Tasyurek was in front and maintained his lead after the 5♣2♣5♠ flop, but that also brought around some chop outs. The 9♣ turn improved Tasyurek to a flush draw, which removed some outs for Shalamov. Tasyurek's double-up was confirmed on the 4♠ river as his ace-king held up, which boosted his stack to around a million.
Boris Tabiyev raised to 60,000 in early position with K♠Q♦ before Lander Lijo called on the button with K♣10♣. Both players flopped a piece on Q♠J♣K♦. Tabiyev continued for 130,000, which Lijo called.
Tabiyev then shoved all in for 615,000 on the 6♠ turn, getting a quick fold from Lijo and chipping up.
In a blind versus blind battle, Halil Tasyurek bet 30,000 on a flop of 3♦A♦A♠ and Arian Kashani called.
The turn was the Q♥ and Tasyurek bet another 75,000. Kashani again called and the 4♥ fell on the river. Tasyurek then bet 120,000 and Kashani called once more.
Tasyurek showed 7♦6♠ for a bluff and Kashani turned over Q♦2♦ for two pair to win the pot.
Halil Tasyurek raised to 60,000 under the gun and Bobby James called in the cutoff.
Tasyurek continued for 45,000 on the 5♥4♦3♥ flop and James called. The turn was the 2♣ and Tasyurek checked.
James then bet 140,000 and Tasyurek quickly moved all in for 350,000. James folded and Tasyurek took the pot.
