Ivan Zhechev opened to 2,000 from under the gun. Action folded around to Abdelmajid El Hani who reraised to 5,700. Zhechev wasted no time in announcing all in and El Hani quickly called for his tournament life.
Abdelmajid El Hani: K♣K♦
Ivan Zhechev: A♥K♠
Zhechev quickly took the lead on the A♦3♠4♥ flop which left El Hani drawing to one out. The turn Q♦ and 4♥ river confirmed El Hani's departure as Zhechev's superior two pair scooped the pot.

Dylan Cechowski opened to 2,000 from early position and was called by Patrice Nicolas in the cutoff. Alin Grasu then squeezed to 7,500 on the button and both Cechowski and Nicolas called.
Action checked to Grasu on the 6♣7♣A♥ flop and he continued for 7,000. Cechowski called and Nicolas check-raised to 20,000. Grasu moved all in for approximately 35,000, which got a fold from Cechowski and a call from Nicolas to be put at risk.
Alin Grasu: A♣K♣
Patrice Nicolas: 7♥6♦
Nicolas was ahead with his two pair, but the K♠ turn vauled Grasu into the lead with a higher two pair.
The 2♠ river changed nothing and Grasu doubled up through Nicolas.

Nicolas Antouard opened to 2,000 from middle position and was three-bet to 5,500 by Rafael Navas on the button. Alexis Ibarrola called cold from the big blind and Antouard four-bet to approximately 50,000. Navas called all in for 37,900 total and Ibarrola let his hand go.
Rafael Navas: A♠K♣
Nicolas Antouard: A♣Q♦
Navas had Antouard dominated, and the 4♦A♦K♥6♦K♠ runout needlessly improved Navas to a full house for the double-up.

Slim Gabsi: A♦2♥
Locquet was in good shape versus only one overcard, and the 8♥2♠5♠K♠5♦ runout handed him the double-up.

Anthony Dery opened from early position to 2,000. Fredric Steinbach called from the small blind and Alessandro Pichierri put in a reraise to 7,000.
Dery wasted no time before announcing all in for around 25,000. Steinbach quickly folded and Pichierri made the call.
Anthony Dery: J♠J♥
Alessandro Pichierri: K♣K♠
The flop of K♦2♠9♦ left Dery drawing almost dead to Pichierri's set. The 10♣ gave Dery a straight draw but the A♣ river sent Dery to the rail.
