Nicola Spallanzani opened 6,000 in the cutoff before Nozomu Shimizu three-bet 18,000 on the button. The blind quickly folded, and Spallanzani called.
The dealer fanned a flop of J♦8♣4♠, and Spallanzani check-called a continuation bet of 14,000.
The J♠ turn and 2♣ river were checked down, and Spallanzani tabled A♠10♠, which was good as Shimizu mucked his hand.
The pot stood at approximately 36,000 with two players looking at a full board of 3♠Q♣4♦5♠A♣.
Apoorva Goel, in the small blind, bet out for 60,000. Borja Miranda, in early position, thought for some time before making the call. Goel tabled 4♥4♠ for a flopped set, while Miranda claimed this pot showing K♠2♠ for a rivered straight.
Level: 14
Blinds: 1,500/3,000
Ante: 3,000
302 players remain as they reach another 20-minute break. Play will continue until 181 players remain.
Tommy Nguyen was all-in for the very last 11,500 and earned two callers including by Damien Auburtin on the button. Mateusz Moolhuizen in the small blind then jammed for 87,000 and that forced out everybody else, including Auburtin with the A♣Q♥.
Tommy Nguyen: K♠2♦
Mateusz Moolhuizen: 8♣8♦
The Q♦9♥4♥7♠3♦ board knocked out Nguyen, while Moolhuizen avoided the same fate thanks to his successful isolation.
Julien Duveau raised from late position and Luis Rodriguez Cruz moved all in for 23,000 from the big blind. Duveau called with the bigger stack and players flipped their cards.
Luis Rodriguez Cruz: 5♦5♠
Julien Duveau: Q♦10♥
The board ran out Q♣10♦A♦K♥K♠. Duveau made two pair, queens and tens on the flop. By the river, the board had paired, giving Duveau two pair, queens and kings to win the pot. Cruz was eliminated from the flight.
Tommaso Dilena, who was under the gun, found himself all in and at risk for his last 51,000, against Antonio Guerrero, in middle position.
Tommaso Dilena: J♦10♦
Antonio Guerrero: K♦K♥
Dilena was all in and in trouble as the flop came 2♥6♦8♥. However, the turn and river fell the J♥ and J♠ respectively and Dilena made trips to stay alive.
Julien Sitbon raised 5,000 in early position, and two players made the call before Ivan Abramchuk shoved in the small blind. Rony Halimi pushed his remaining stack across the line from the big blind, putting the action back on Sitbon. He asked for a count on both, and after hearing Abramchuk had 22,500, and Halimi 17,000, he announced all-in as well, forcing both players behind to fold.
Rony Halimi: K♣10♣
Ivan Abramchuk: 7♥7♣
Julien Sitbon: 10♥10♠
The A♠9♠3♣ flop missed all three players, with Sitbon still having the lead. The 6♥ hit the turn changing nothing, but the 7♠ landed on the river, sending the pot to Abramchuk.
It was a typical flip that unfolded over on table five when Jason Lau was all-in and up against big stack Alexandre Correia.
Jason Lau: A♦K♦
Alexandre Correia: 9♥9♣
Just one paint card and diamond appeared on the J♠8♦6♠ flop. Nothing changed with the 6♣ turn and the 7♦ river sent more chips to Correia.
