On the turn with the board showing A♠4♣8♥6♣, Matthias Auer was first to act from the small blind and put out a bet that was big enough to put Niklas Astedt all in. Astedt had roughly 9,000 in his stack and after thinking it over for a few moments, put in the call.
Niklas Astedt: Q♠8♠
Matthias Auer: A♣J♣
Auer was ahead with top pair, but Astedt could hit a non-club queen or eight on the river to win the hand. The dealer put out the 2♣ on the river to give Auer the nut flush, and Astedt was sent home.

Ruben Picazo announced all in from under the gun for 21,500. Kristian Dahl, to his direct left, also pushed his stack of 33,000 into the middle, and everyone else folded.
Ruben Picazo: K♦Q♥
Kristian Dahl: A♦Q♠
Picazo needed a king to stay alive, but the A♣5♥4♠ flop made his task even harder. The J♠ on the turn gave him a gutshot straight draw, but the 6♣ on the river sealed his exit from the tournament and Dahl collected the pot.

Frederik Brink got his 21,500 into the middle preflop with Ludovic Geilich making the call to try and bust him.
Frederik Brink: A♠10♣
Ludovic Geilich: A♣8♣
Brink just had to fade an eight or some clubs to double up and leave Geilich with crumbs. A safe runout of 9♠7♦3♥9♦5♣ kept Brink ahead the whole way, and he doubled.
