After the dealer fanned a flop of 10♠Q♣5♦, Jose Silva Montero in middle position bet 2,400. Antonio Iannei in the cutoff moved all-in for 6,800. This action made Romain Le Dantec in the big blind fold, but Silva Montero called.
Antonio Iannei: 10♥7♥ 
Jose Silva Montero: A♥K♥
Iannei was in the lead with a pair, but after the 8♣ turn, Silva Montero hit a straight on the river with the J♣ to send Iannei to the rail.
Anton Blondal in middle position opened to 1,000 and called after Hristian Panchev on the button three-bet to 3,000.
Panchev's continuation bet to 1,500 was check-called, then both players checked the 4♣ turn.
Blondal checked the 2♣ river and eventually folded after Panchev bet 8,000.
Ramos Carvalho raised and Filipe Nuno re-raised to 6,200. Carvalho then re-raised to 17,000 and Nuno called.
Nuno checked on the flop of 6♠5♦9♠ and Carvalho continued for 6,000. Nuno check-jammed a stack of around 25,000 and Carvalho quickly called with slightly more.
Filipe Nuno: Q♠Q♦
Ramos Carvalho: A♥A♠
Nuno's queens were crushed by his opponent's aces and a runout of 6♦10♥ confirmed his elimination.
Youssafi Khalil opened to 1,000 from under the gun and was called by Tanner Lefferts to his left, Victor Vozian on the button and Aleksei Savenkov and Hjalti Thorisson in the blinds.
All five of them checked a flop of J♣8♥J♠ leading to the 5♠ turn where Vozian led out for 2,500. Thorisson was the only one to call.
The K♦ river was checked by both players so Thorisson flipped over 8♠3♣ for a pair. Vozian had the same pair with 8♦6♦ so they split the pot.
Daniele Guidetti was all in from the button against Brian Green in the hijack, who had him covered.
Daniele Guidetti: A♥Q♥
Brian Green: K♦10♦
The flop of 2♦7♦6♦ left Guidetti drawing stone dead as Green made a flush and the runout of K♣J♣ confirmed Guidetti's elimination.

Blinds: 200/500
