Action folded around to Ole Schemion who opened the button to 6,500. Both Nikolaos Vouldis in the small blind and Sergio Brignoli in the big blind called.
Both blinds checked the 5♣K♦8♥ flop to Schemion who bet 7,500. Vouldis and Brignoli folded quickly and Schemion stacked some more chips.
Felix Schneiders raised from the hijack and Konstantinos Piladakis made the call in the small blind.
By the turn of the 5♣8♠6♠K♦ board, Piladakis had his stack in the middle and the PokerStars Team Pro was in the tank. Schneiders elected to call and the hands were turned up.
Konstantinos Piladakis: A♣A♥ 
Felix Schneiders: K♣Q♣
Schneiders made a pair on the turn, but the pocket aces of Piladakis remained ahead after the 3♥ river to double up.
Action was picked up on the flop of J♠8♣6♣. With around 75,000 in the middle, Clement Michaud led from the cutoff for 26,000. Philippe Le Touche made the call on the button.
Michaud fired another barrel after a moment in the tank, this time for 80,000. Le Touche took a moment before mucking his hand.
Action was picked up with Laurent Polito all in and at risk versus the covering stack of Axel Hallay. The cards were on their backs.
Laurent Polito: A♠K♣
Axel Hallay: A♥J♣
Hallay was dominated preflop but the 2♥3♣J♦ flop put him into the lead. He held through the 8♣ turn and the 10♦ river to send Polito to the rail.
