Jianwei Lin kicked the action off with a raise to 8,000 from early position. Sinead Davenport called from the cutoff with the player on the button calling too.
Lin continued for another 8,000 on the 10♣10♥6♠ flop, which Davenport called before the button player folded.
Both players then checked the 10♠ turn.
When the dealer added the K♥ river to the board, Lin picked the betting lead back up, announcing he was all in, covering Davenport's stack. Davenport beat him into the pot, turning over K♦10♦ for turned quads. Lin flipped over his A♦Q♥ as a formality before cutting out the required chips to send in Davenport's direction.

On the next deal, Decesare raised to 8,000. Roman Stoica called from the big blind. Stoica check-called for 7,000 on the A♠J♠6♥ flop and then led out for 18,000 on the 7♠ turn. Decesare called.

Osman Aksu opened the action from middle position to 8,000 and picked up calls from Kalle Parkkinen on the button and Petre Ionescu in the small blind. In the big blind, Giuseppe Spitale three-bet to 29,000, and only Aksu called.
Both players checked the 6♦4♠7♠ flop.
On the 7♦ turn, Spitale led out for 30,000, and Aksu called quickly.
The Q♥ river slowed the action as both checked. Spitale revealed 5♦4♥ for a pair of fours and a missed straight draw, while Aksu showed J♦J♥ for a higher pair, scooping the fast-paced pot.

Fabio Fedullo moved all in for his remaining 7,000, which Toni Kaukua in the small blind chose to isolate, raising to 16,000. The big blind folded, and the cards were flipped over.
Fabio Fedullo: 2♠2♦ 
Toni Kaukua: 10♥9♥
Kaukua took the lead on the 4♦10♦Q♦ flop, but Fedullo still had plenty of cards to help him catch up with his flush draw.
The turn K♠ didn't change anything, but the river 2♥ saw Fedullo improve to a set, earning him a triple-up with the blinds included.
