Alessandro Adinolfo had produced a three-bet to 15,500 from the big blind over an open from Anton Suarez and two calls. Suarez four-bet jammed for 41,500 and Adinolfo called after the other players departed the scene.
Anton Suarez: J♦J♥
Alessandro Adinolfo: 6♥5♥
Suarez seemed in good shape, but the K♥8♣7♠ flop spelt danger, giving Adinolfo an up and draw draw.
The 9♣ rolled off on the turn to leave Suarez drawing to a ten, and it did not arrive on the 7♥ river.

With around 25,000 chips in the pot on a board of 9♦5♣4♣5♠, Mohammad Najdi shoved for 21,000 from the big blind, and Pawel Wojciechowski made the call.
Mohammad Najdi: 4♠2♣
Pawel Wojciechowski: A♠9♠
Najdi was in a spot of bother and needed a four on the river to survive. However, the 3♦ river couldn't save Najdi from the rail, and Wojciechowski's stack grew a little larger.

Two players were all-in and at risk against Francesco Di Profio who earlier picked up aces in a hand where a fellow tablemate also had aces.
This time he had A♥A♠ and was up against the A♣K♥ of Alexandru-Bogdan Paraschiv and the 2♦2♥ of Andreas Loesche.
Paraschiv tapped the table after the J♣9♣5♣ flop, perhaps in anticipation of a fourth club coming to hand him the pot, but the 5♥4♥ runout bricked for both players and Di Profio sent them both to the rail.

Around 40,000 was in the middle on a completed board of A♠10♦6♦Q♣8♥, in a hand between Mohammad Najdi and Martin Tsvetanov.
Nadji led out with a bet of 12,500, and was faced with an all-in of 28,300 from Tsvetanov. Nadji didn't like it, but felt priced in and made the call.
Tsvetanov tabled A♥Q♦ for top two pair, which bested Nadji's K♦10♠ for a pair of tens.

Peter Kvisthammar raised to 2,400 and got one caller before Daniel Veloson three-bet all in for 27,200. Kvisthammar four-bet all in and the other player folded.
Daniel Veloson: Q♠10♥
Peter Kvisthammar: Q♥Q♣
Kvisthammar was in good shape but the K♥J♠8♣ flop gave Veloson outs to a straight. The turn 8♥ and river 7♦ saw Kvisthammar secure the pot, chip up to over 100,000 chips and send Veloson to the rail.

PokerStars Ambassador Fintan Hand posted on his Instagram story a hand from earlier where he doubled with K♠K♥ against the A♦J♥ of an opponent.
He dodged straight outs on the Q♣10♠8♥J♦4♠ runout to double up, but found himself heading to the tournament exit shortly thereafter. He's now re-entered and seated once again in the Eureka Main Event.
