Jon Kyte opened to 1,300 from the hijack and was called by Niclas Thumm on the button and Saad Ravate in the small blind. Ivan Zhechev announced he was all in for approximately 17,000 from the big blind and Kyte also went all in for more.
Both Thumm and Ravate got out of the way and hands were revealed.
Ivan Zhechev: 3♥3♠
Jon Kyte: 6♣6♠
Zhechev would need some help with his underpair, but the Q♠K♠9♥4♠K♦ runout changed nothing and Kyte collected the rest of Zhechev's chips.

Reiji Kono opened in middle position to 1,700 and was called by Jimmy Armougom, before Michael Uguccioni produced a three-bet in the cutoff to 6,500. Only Kono called.
On the 2♦2♣K♣ flop Kono check-called a bet of 2,300 from Uguccioni.
The 4♦ turn was checked through by both players.
The 3♣ rolled off on the river, bringing a potential flush, and Kono led out with a bet of 20,500, leaving himself only 7,800 behind.
Uguccioni took some time before making the call, but mucked his hand when he was shown 4♣4♥ by Kono for a turned full house.

Action was picked up with an all in and a call between Jose Manuel Gonzalez, who was on the button, and Nicolas Lecoeuvre in the big blind. Gonzalez was covered but only just by Lecoeuvre.
Jose Manuel Gonzalez: 8♠8♥
Nicolas Lecoeuvre: 4♠4♥
Gonzalez was in good shape to double on the 6♠5♦A♥ flop, but the 3♥ turn gave Lecoeuvre an open-ended straight draw. He did not hit it however as the 10♣ river confirmed that Gonzalez would double up and leave Lecoeuvre incredibly short-stacked.

On the 6♥7♥K♣ flop Koja check-called a bet of 1,400 from Dupre.
On the 10♦ turn Koja checked to Dupre, who fired out a bet of 5,400.
Koja took at least two minutes before deciding to fold, seemingly reluctantly.
