Three-way to the 7♣J♥A♥10♣ turn, David Taieb bet 1,000 into the pot of 1,500 from the small blind, Matiss Celmins called in the big blind before Stoyan Madanzhiev raised to 3,300 in the hijack.

Taieb quickly called, while Celmins folded after some thought. Taieb checked the 9♦ river to Madanzhiev, who weighed his options before he slid in a massive bet of 17,100.

Taieb needed a few minutes to think, but ultimately passed his cards to the dealer reluctantly.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Andreas Klatt opened from middle position and was called by Maria Koutsouki in the hijack. Luca Delfino on the button three-bet to 1,500 and only Klatt called.

Delfino continued for 1,100 on a flop of 5♣5♠Q♣ and Klatt check-called, then both players checked the 7♠ turn.

On the 4♦ river, Klatt went deep into the tank and bet 3,800. Delfino folded.

Giuseppe Spitale, Youssafi Khalil, Yinchuan Liu, and Bernardino Hernandez had gathered about 6,000 before the flop. The dealer then fanned 6♣2♥7♥, on which Liu bet 1,200.

All three opponents called to the 8♠ turn, where Liu sized up to 5,200. This time, he received three folds for his efforts, taking down the pot while his opponents questioned his holding.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Julian Lozano kicked the action off with a raise to 300 from early position. Eric Afriat called a couple of seats to his left before Nikolai Mamut raised to 1,200 on the button. Both Lozano and Afriat stuck around.

The dealer provided a monotone 5♥3♥2♥ which saw Lozano check, and Afriat take over the betting lead, putting 2,000 into the middle. Both his opponents called, and three remained, heading to a turn.

All three players then checked on both the K♥ turn and the K♠ river.

Lozano showed he had flopped a flush with 9♥8♥, good enough to claim the pot as Mamut revealed he had [tsd], and Afriat rolled over his 6♠6♥.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Henry Brade had opened in middle position when Fabien Desbrueres made it 1,200 to go in the cutoff. Georgios Karakousis cold-called on the button, and Brade tossed in calling chips as well.

Desbrueres tossed in 2,500 on the Q♣6♥7♠ flop, which only Karakousis called. The two remaining players checked through the 4♠ turn, leading Desbrueres to bet another 2,500 on the 6♣ river.

Karakousis quickly put calling chips over the line, after which Desbrueres tabled 10♥10♠ for a pair of tens. Karakousis won the pot with Q♠J♣ for top pair, however, awarding him the pot of over 100 big blinds.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Roland Rokita raised to 300 from the hijack, gathering calls from Mitchell Johnson, in the cutoff, and the player in the big blind.

When action checked to Johnson on the 2♠4♦7♥ flop, he bet 500. That was enough to see the big blind player release his cards, but Rokita called.

Both players checked the 3♦ turn before Rokita took over the betting lead on the 6♥ river. He put 600 into the middle, which met immediate resistance as Johnson raised to 2,500.

Rokita pondered for a moment but ultimately chose to return his cards to the dealer, conceding the pot.

Stoyan Madanzhiev opened to 300 in the cutoff, which was three-bet to 800 by Angelo Censabella on the button. Matiss Celmins confirmed the amount in the big blind before he called, and Madanzhiev came along as well.

The trio saw a flop of J♦A♠3♣. It checked to Censabella, who continued with a bet of 1,000. Celmins called, while Madanzhiev got out of the way.

Celmins and Censabelle then checked the 9♦ turn, prompting Celmins to bet 1,600 on the 5♥ river.

Censabelle took a final peek at his cards before he slid them towards the muck, forfeiting the pot.
