Mario Navarro Arrocha had mounted a comeback from less than two big blinds to around 30,000 in chips and had just successfully gotten a shove through on the previous hand.
The next hand, Vladyslav Martynenko raised to 5,000 from late position and Arrocha called in the big blind.
The flop came 8♥K♦9♦ and Arrocha checked. Martynenko continued for 4,000 and Arrocha check-raised to 12,000. Martynenko moved all in and Arrocha called for the rest of his stack.
Arrocha flipped over K♣2♥ for a pair of kings, but Martynenko had K♠10♠ for a pair of kings with higher kicker. The turn was the A♣ and river the A♠, so Martynenko's kicker played and he won the pot. Arrocha had done well to recover his stack, but his run was over.

There was around 90,000 in the middle on the river on a board of 10♠K♦9♥6♣7♣ as Thomas Santerne pushed all in, putting his opponent, Max Neugebauer, under pressure for the rest of his stack.
Neugebauer went into the tank and raised his eyebrows with a pained expression in his face as he pushed a few chips forward to signify the call. He had 10♣9♣ for two pair, but Santerne turned over Q♥J♣ for a straight to win the pot.
Santerne chipped up to around 240,000, while Neugebauer was eliminated from the tournament.

It's not Teun Mulder's day today as he was sent to the rail for the second time within the first five levels.
Mulder had all his chips in the middle, a little under 50,000, against Niklas Astedt, who had him well covered as players flipped their cards.
Teun Mulder: A♠Q♣
Niklas Astedt: A♦A♣
Mulder was drawing very thin as the board ran out 9♣5♦9♠8♦9♦ and was drawing dead by the turn. Astedt held with his pocket aces to win the pot, while Mulder was eliminated. After firing his only reentry, Mulder is well and truly out of the event.
Meanwhile, Wouter Beltz has joined the game.
