Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Julien Stropoli was all in preflop and at risk for 21,800, having been looked up by Pavle Pecelj.
Julien Stropoli: K♥K♣ 
Pavle Pecelj: J♥J♦
The 4♦9♦7♥10♥ turn brought a gutshot for Pecelj's jacks, but the 9♠ river remained safe for Stropoli to double up. Pecelj, meanwhile, was left with fewer than three big blinds in his stack.

: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Paawan Bansal opened the action with a raise to 1,200 on the button. Tan Le then moved all in from the small blind for 9,400. Michal Kil called from the big blind, and Bansal folded.
Tan Le: Q♥J♥
Michal Kil: A♥A♣
An unideal situation for Le, who was unable to improve enough to claim the pot on the 7♣9♠6♠J♦3♣ runout.

: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
At PokerStars ambassador Sebastian Huber's table, Hampus Grave opened from the button and faced Eduard Barsegian who defended from the big blind.
Grave continued for 2,200 on a flop of Q♠2♥A♦ and Barsegian check-called.
The turn card was the K♠ and Grave fired a second barrel of 2,600. However his move was out of turn so the action went back to Garsegian who called.
The 7♦ river was checked by both players and Barsegian won the pot with A♥10♠.

Blaz Zerjav opened under the gun for 1,000, and Antonio Scala defended his big blind. Scala checked to 9♠5♦3♠ flop to the preflop aggressor, who continued for 700.
Scala check-raised to 2,300 and placed a bet of 1,800 on the 7♣ turn once Zerjav had called. Zerjav called the down-sized turn bet as well, seeing Scala pile in 15,000 on the 10♦ river.
Zerjav quickly mucked his cards, granting the pot to Scala without showdown.

Jianping Zhu opened from late position with a raise to 1,100 and picked up three callers.
The flop came 4♥7♠9♠, and after the action checked around, Lukas Rose fired 2,400 from the button. Only Leo Worthington-Leese called to see the A♣ turn.
Worthington-Leese checked again, and Rose continued for 6,500. Worthington-Leese made the call once more.
When the 8♠ landed on the river, Worthington-Leese checked a third time, and this time Rose checked back. Worthington-Leese tabled 9♦8♣ for two pair, enough to take down the pot as Rose’s cards hit the muck.

: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
After seeing a raise to 1,200 and a call ahead of him, in position player Adrian Bodenheimer chose the aggressive route, three-betting 4,000.
Action then folded to Jedrzej Gruzczynski in the big blind, who wanted to play for more, cold four-betting to 9,500.
The original raiser and caller got out of the way, and with little hesitation, Bodenheimer followed suit, returning his cards to the dealer.

Roman Stoica opened to 1,000 in the cutoff, which Ahmed Ibrahimi three-bet to 4,500 once it had folded to him in the big blind. Stoica called after some deliberation, and check-called when Ibrahimi bet 2,500 on the 9♥Q♥J♥ flop.
Ibrahimi checked it over to Stoica on the 5♣ turn, prompting him to fire a bet of 3,500. Ibrahimi swiftly moved all in, and Stoica snap-folded, leaving about a starting stack back.
