Didrik Mantor moved all in for 200,000 from the hijack and Robert Binek put him at risk in the cutoff.
Didrik Mantor: K♦Q♥ 
Robert Binek: A♠Q♣
Mantor was dominated and needed to improve, but he couldn't connect with the 10♥6♦4♦4♣J♣ board and was sent to the rail.
Moments after Kelvin Kerber's elimination from the same table, it was Jason Wheeler's turn to be at risk for 360,000 against Joao Webber in the hijack.
Jason Wheeler: 9♥9♦
Joao Webber: J♣J♦
The board of K♣Q♦7♦2♦7♥ was no help for Wheler who was eliminated.
Kimon Fountoukidis opened to 30,000 from under the gun and Karl Karlsson three-bet to 75,000 in the hijack. When it got back to Fountoukidis, he shoved for 185,000, and Karlsson called.
Kimon Fountoukidis: Q♠Q♥
Karl Karlsson: A♣Q♣
Fountoukidis was ahead with his pocket queens and was looking to start building a stack. The flop of J♦6♣J♠ kept him in front, but he had to sweat a little when the 9♣ turn gave Karlsson a flush draw.
That flush draw came in when the 8♣ hit the river, which meant Fountoukidis was eliminated.
Kelvin Kerber opened from middle position. Juan Carlos Vecino on the button three-bet to 65,000, Kerber moved all in for 240,000 and Vecino called.
Kelvin Kerber: Q♣Q♠
Juan Carlos Vecino: A♠K♠
Vecino hit top pair on a board of 3♥J♦A♦6♥3♦ and sent Kerber to the rail.
Kevin Houghton moved all in yet again, this time for 200,000 in the hijack. Javier Tazon called on the button, while Konstantyn Holskyi reshoved in the big blind. Tazon snap-called.
Kevin Houghton: A♥5♥
Konstantyn Holskyi: J♣J♠
Javier Tazon: K♣K♦
"Come on, give me an ace. Flop 'em dead," Houghton pleaded with the dealer going to the flop, and his wish was granted when the flop came A♣10♥2♠. The rest of the board ran out 3♠8♥ and Houghton tripled up.
"That will do. That will do, boys. Now we got a game," Houghton said. After both opponents paid off Houghton, their remaining stacks were counted down and Tazon's 400,000 had Holskyi covered by just 15,000, sending the Ukrainian to the rail.
John Woods opened to 30,000 from under the gun with A♠A♣ and Tobias Leknes three-bet to 100,000 on the button holding 9♠9♦. When it got back to Woods, he four-bet to 275,000. Leknes took some time to think about it and then called.
The flop came Q♥4♥2♥ and Woods continued with a bet of 130,000. Leknes peeled one off to see the J♣ hit the turn, where Woods checked. Leknes then fired in a bet of 325,000, and after some time in the tank, Woods folded his pocket aces.
"450,' Kevin Houghton joked as he moved all in for 150,000 from under the gun.
"The first one was bad," Thomas Eychenne said as he peeled his cards in the big blind. Eychenne ended up using a time bank but eventually called to put Houghton at risk.
Kevin Houghton: A♠Q♣
Thomas Eychenne: A♦5♣
The 10♦6♥6♠ flop left open the possibility of a chop, while the turn was the 8♣. The river was the 4♦ and Houghton's queen-kicker continued to play to earn him a double up.
"It takes a lot to kill me, fellas," Houghton told his tablemates.
With 72 players remaining, tournament officials randomly selected a table to break and happened to pick the TV table.
Play has been paused while another table is selected to go on the main stage.
Thomas Lilamand jammed for 115,000 from the hijack and he was called by Georgios Karakousis in the cutoff. Oscar Alache on the button raised all-in for 395,000 and Karakousis went into the tank before making the call.
Thomas Lilamand: A♠K♣
Oscar Alache: A♦K♥
Georgios Karakousis: A♣8♣
A few players seemed surprised to see that Karakousis called with ace-eight, and even more surprised when he hit a pair on 8♥10♠9♠.
It seems like he was going to score a double elimination after the Q♠5♠ runout was revealed, but Lilamand luckily hit a runner-runner flush to triple up. "I didn't see it, that's a very good surprise," he said while Alache was eliminated.
