Vincenzo Bortone: A♠3♥ All in
Tim Gerwig: Q♠Q♣

Damien Bette moved all in from the button, and Vladas Burneikis responded with an all in from the small blind.

Damien Bette: 5x5x All in
Vladas Burneikis: K♠Q♠

The dealer put out a flop of 6♦10♠10♥, and Bette had to fade some extra outs. When the 7♥ hit on the turn, Burneikis asked for another seven on the river. It wasn't a seven but the K♦ that completed the board, and Bette was eliminated from the tournament, just five players away from the end of the day.

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Mosjin El Yakoubi opened the action with an all in from early position. Espen Nikolaisen moved all in as well from late position, and Miki Garcia called from the small blind.

Mosjin El Yakoubi: Q♥10♥ All in
Espen Nikolaisen: 9♠9♥ All in
Miki Garcia: K♣K♥

Garcia was in prime position to scoop a massive pot just 20 spots away from the money when the flop came 3♠3♦5♠. However, the 9♣ on the turn shifted the momentum, giving Nikolaisen a full house. The Q♠ on the river sealed the hand for Nikolaisen, who raked in the pot, eliminating Yakoubi while Garcia took a major hit to his stack.

Tim Baker

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Francesco Galanti shoved from middle position for roughly 35,000 with Martin Kabrhel making the call from the cutoff to try and bust him.

Francesco Galanti: A♦Q♥ All in
Martin Kabrhel: A♥K♠

Galanti needed some help from lady luck to stay alive. The board ran out J♠A♠4♠3♠Q♣, which may have given Galanti two pair, but it was second best to Kabrhel's turned flush, ending Galanti's tournament.
