Taran Parmar moved all in for 150,000 in the hijack and Aliaksei Boika called in the big blind.
Taran Parmar: K♣10♣
Aliaksei Boika: A♣10♠
Parmar stood up from his seat and began filming the action as the dealer turned over the 9♣4♠5♥ flop. The 6♣ came on the turn and Parmar began calling for a flush on the river, but he didn't need it as the K♦ fell to give him a pair.
"Yes," he cried out as he sat back down and accepted the pot.

In a blind versus blind battle, 400,000 was in the middle and the board read J♠3♦8♦4♦10♥ when Yulian Bogdanov slid out a bet of 350,000, which put his opponent, Ehsan Amiri, at risk if he called. Bogdanov only slightly covered his opponent.
Amiri thought through the spot for quite some time, and at one point apologized to his tablemates.
He then made the call, turning over J♦10♠ for rivered top two pair. Bogdanov had got extremely unlucky as he held J♥3♣ for flopped two pair.

Michel Leibgorin raised to 60,000 under the gun, then called when Ivan Uzunov moved all in for around 480,000 in the small blind.
Ivan Uzunov: A♦10♦
Michel Leibgorin: A♠Q♦
Leibgorin stood up with a giant magnifying glass and looked through it at the 2♦J♦J♥ flop that gave Uzunov a flush draw. The turn was the 10♣ and Uzunov improved to two pair, while the K♣ fell on the river.
Leibgorin prepared to hand over the pot until the table pointed out that he made a straight to bust Uzunov.

Konstantin Farber opened to 55,000 in early position and action folded to Gerard Rubiralta in the small blind, who produced a three-bet to 135,000.
Action folded back to Farber who reached for chips for the prompt all-in four-bet jam, which led to an even quicker fold from Rubiralta.

Rony Halimi moved all in for 100,000 under the gun, Rain Heeringas reshoved on the button, and the blinds got out of the way.
Rony Halimi: A♥7♣
Rain Heeringas: A♦K♣
Halimi was dominated and remained behind as the board came 4♥2♦10♣9♠, but he caught the 7♥ on the river and slammed the table in celebration of his fortunate double up.
"Lucky river. Congratulations," tablemate Sergii Baranov told him.
Halimi has been at the center of several verbal confrontations with his tablemates today after they accused him of taking too long on most of his decisions.

Heads-up on a flop of A♥8♥2♦, Dann Assouline bet 75,000 from the button and Alexander Glogar called in the big blind.
The turn was the 3♥ and Assouline put Glogar all in. "Alright, I call," Glogar said as he pushed forward his last 300,000. He showed A♣9♥, but Assouline had him dominated with A♠K♦.
The river was the 5♥ and Glogar improved to a flush. "Oh my God, I'm so lucky," he said, putting his hands on his head in disbelief while the dealer pushed the big pot in his direction.
