Grzegorz Glowny got his stack of 285,000 in the middle from middle position against Yael Pilo Raz in the small blind, and was at risk.
Grzegorz Glowny: A♦K♦ 
Yael Pilo Raz: A♠K♠
Both players had a flush draw after the 5♠9♦10♦9♠ turn, but the 8♦ river completed only Glowny's flush. He raked in the double-up as Pilo Raz dropped to a stack of around 30 big blinds.
Aviad Regev moved all in for 158,000 in middle position, Nikola Gunchev reshoved in the small blind, and the rest of the table got out of the way.
Aviad Regev: K♦K♣
Nikola Gunchev: 9♣9♥
Regev had Gunchev dominated, and improved to a full house on the 10♠5♠10♥K♥7♠ board to win the pot and double up.
At another table, Sebastian Kotowicz had opened to 30,000 in middle position before Michael Rocco three-bet to 64,000 on the button. Kotowicz then moved all in, and Rocco snap-called for 250,000.
Michael Rocco: J♣J♦
Sebastian Kotowicz: K♣K♠
Rocco had run his jacks into Kotowicz's kings and was already gathering up his things and preparing to make his exit as the flop came 10♦A♦4♥. The rest of the board ran out A♠9♣ and Rocco was sent to the rail.
Herve Decker was down to 265,000, which he pushed all in under the gun. It folded to Rigu Martin in the small blind, who called after getting a count.
Herve Decker: K♥J♥
Rigu Martin: A♥K♦
Decker flopped more outs on 9♥9♠Q♥, but his draws failed to arrive on the Q♣ turn or 7♣ river. He was sent to the payout desk as Martin collected the pot.
Petar Kalev was also at this table, having amassed a massive stack of over 150 big blinds so far on Day 2.
In a blind versus blind battle, Ermanno Di Nicola bet 95,000 on a board of 9♦Q♣5♦A♣ and Vitezslav Cech called.
The river was the J♠ and Di Nicola moved all in. Cech took a few minutes before tablemate Gerald Karlic called the clock. The 30-second countdown was just about to hit zero when Cech called for his last 152,000.
"You're good," Di Nicola told him, showing 6♥2♣ for a bluff. Cech turned over K♦9♠ for a pair of nines to win the pot and double up.
Claudio Di Giacomo in early position and Itzhak Giladi in middle position had created a pot worth over 500,000 when they reached the 3♣2♥7♦J♦2♣ river.
Di Giacomo added 197,000 with a bet, sending Giladi into the tank. After a while, Giladi called. Di Giacomo tabled J♠10♦ for top pair, which was enough to send Giladi's cards into the muck and win the huge pot.
Giladi was left with about seven big blinds, which Di Giacomo also took from him in the very next hand.
Ante Cetinic three-bet to 85,000 in the hijack, then called for his last 250,000 when Matthias Auer moved all in from under the gun.
Ante Cetinic: A♦Q♦
Matthias Auer: Q♣Q♠
Cetinic was looking for an ace to survive, but he couldn't connect with the 3♣6♠8♣5♠2♦ board as Auer's two queens earned him the knockout.

Rama Prema raised to 32,000 in middle position before Christian Steindel moved all in for 380,000 in the hijack. Davis Mihelsons called in the cutoff, while Prema got out of the way.
Christian Steindel: 8♦8♣
Davis Mihelsons: A♠A♥
Mihelsons had woken up with aces and had Steindel's eights dominated and at risk. The 10♦5♣3♦9♣3♠ board offered no help to Steindel, and he was sent to the rail while Mihelsons raked in the big pot.
Blind-on-blind, Atanas Kodinov and Oeyvind Sundseth both checked the 5♦4♠5♥ flop. Kodinov then check-raised Sundseth on the 8♠ turn, and Sundseth called to create a pot of about 160,000.
Kodinvo continued betting on the 8♥ river, sliding in a bet of 82,000. Not done aggressing, Sundseth pushed all in, covering Kodinov's stack.
After some thought and a few sighs, Kodinov let his hand go. Sundseth proudly tabled K♠6♥ for king-high as he raked in the chips and eclipsed the million-mark.
