Andras Matrai opened to 200,000 and Sokratis Linaras moved all in for 320,000. Michel Leibgorin in the next seat cold-called, and Matrai also just called.
The two active players checked down the J♥3♦J♠6♣2♣ runout.
Linaras had Q♣J♦ for trip jacks which was good against the ace-high of Matrai and the king-high of Leibgorin.
Lars Kamphues raised to 160,000 in early position and Charles Whitehouse called in the hijack. Nicolas Vayssieres then three-bet to 1,375,000 on the button.
Guillermo Gordo called in the small blind, while Kamphues and Whitehouse both got out of the way. The flop came 8♠4♠4♦ and Gordo moved all in.
Vayssieres shrugged and turned around to look at the clock as he tanked for several minutes. The clock was eventually called and he decided to put in his last 1,000,000.
Nicolas Vayssieres: J♥J♣
Guillermo Gordo: K♥K♠
Vayssieres found himself crushed by Gordo's kings as the board ran out 3♣10♠, sending him out of the tournament in 22nd place.
In a battle of the blinds, on the 10♣6♥7♥ flop Claas Segebrecht check-raised to 250,000 versus Cedric Schwaederle's bet of 80,000. Schwaederle wasn't deterred and reached for the four-bet to 575,000. Segebrecht called.
On the K♠ turn, Schwaederle moved all in and received the snap call from Segebrecht.
Cedric Schwaederle: 10♠7♣
Claas Segebrecht: K♥10♥
In a cooler both players had two pair but Segebrecht's was better, and the 5♠ river confirmed Schwaederle's exit and sent a huge pot to Segebrecht.
Omar Del Pino moved all in for 1,285,000 in the small blind and Jesse Lonis called from the hijack.
Omar Del Pino: A♠K♥
Jesse Lonis: 9♣9♥
The flop came K♣J♦J♠ and Del Pino hit two pair to take the lead. The rest of the board came 10♦Q♣ and he finished with the nut straight to win the pot and double up.
Heads-up on a board of 2♥3♣K♦7♥, Parker Talbot bet 345,000 from early position and Daniel Kyosev moved all in from middle position. Talbot snap-called for 665,000.
Kyosev showed K♣Q♣ for top pair, but Talbot had A♠A♣ and was poised for a double up as the 7♠ completed the board.
Claas Stegebrecht was in the big blind and a number of opponents had seemed to be contemplating raising, before ultimately opting to fold, giving him a walk in the big blind.
Segebrecht looked down at his cards, started laughing and turned over K♥K♣, causing much mirth at the table.
As Segebrecht told PokerNews "I should never have looked," which as all poker players know is rule number one when given a walk.
