Jaehyung Park checked the A♥8♦3♠9♠ turn in middle position. Roman Stoica then placed a bet of 55,000, which Park raised to 165,000. Stoica called to the 3♣ turn, where Park quickly wagered 220,000.
Stoica did not take long before tossing in a calling chip. Park shook his head and tabled Q♠10♠ for queen-high. Stoica had looked him up with A♠2♠ for top pair and raked in the significant pot.
Matthias Auer opened to 20,000 from middle position and saw Fabian Bartuschk call on the button and Claas Segebrecht from the small blind.
The 7♠Q♠2♥ flop was checked to the 9♠ turn. Action checked to Bartuschk, who bet 30,000 and saw both players call.
Auer bet 55,000 on the 4♠ river, but didn't get any more action from the table as both players folded.
Conor O'Driscoll opened to 20,000 in the cutoff and quickly called when Matthias Auer jammed in his stack of 167,000 on the button.
Matthias Auer: Q♦J♦ 
Conor O'Driscoll: A♠K♣
The 8♥3♠5♥ flop brought no help for Auer, but the J♣ turn elevated him into the lead with top pair. The 3♦ river was not an ace or a king, securing Auer a double-up.
Four players went to a flop of 2♦7♣8♦ where Jeremie Zouari bet 33,000 from the big blind. Gabriele Lepore then raised to 75,000 in the cutoff.
The table folded around to Zouari, who called to see the 6♠ turn. Lepore then moved all in for 180,000, and Zouari quickly folded.
Ghattas Kortas opened to 20,000 from early position and Aleksandar Tomovic called in the hijack. Filippo Ragone also defended the big blind taking the players three-ways to the 5♣A♥K♥ flop.
Ragone checked, and Kortas bet 30,000. Tomovic called and Ragone gave up his cards.
The Q♦ turn saw Kortas move 55,000 into the middle, which was enough to see Tomovic fold.
Ilya Nikiforov moved his last 111,000 over the line from the cutoff. Ivan Poroliev spent one of his time banks before calling in the big blind, covering his opponent.
Ilya Nikiforov: Q♣8♣
Ivan Poroliev: K♣J♦
Nikiforov had a pair and a flush draw after the 6♦3♣8♥7♣ turn for a sizable lead, but the K♥ river gave Poroliev a higher pair to knock out Nikiforov in brutal fashion.
Action folded to the blinds, where Merijn van Rooij limped the small blind. Gabriele Guerrini moved all in for roughly 140,000, and Van Rooij snap-called.
Gabriele Guerrini: 6♠6♣
Merijn van Rooij: Q♦J♦
The flop came K♥J♥J♣, giving Van Rooij trip jacks and crushing Guerrini’s chances for a double-up.
The 10♥ turn and 2♣ river changed nothing, sending Guerrini out of the tournament.
Alexander Norden and Sergey Lebedev saw a flop of Q♦Q♠7♠ when Norden bet 15,000 from the cutoff. Lebedev then raised to 35,000 in the big blind.
Norden reraised to 55,000, and Lebedev ended up burning four time banks and tanking for several minutes before he gave up his hand.
Matthias Auer raised to 20,000 in the cutoff, after which Fehim Hajdari moved all in for 220,000 on the button. Bora Kurtulus called off for 160,000, and Auer vacated the pot.
Bora Kurtulus: A♥A♦
Fehim Hajdari: 8♦8♣
Kurtulus' aces easily held on the 4♠Q♠J♠J♣5♥ runout, doubling him up and leaving Hajdari with six big blinds in his stack.
Elia Salerno raised to 20,000 in the hijack and Antonio Sciacca called in the small blind.
Salerno continued for 20,000 on the 10♠4♥2♠ flop, and Sciacca raised to 75,000. Salerno called, and the 9♣ fell on the turn.
Sciacca then moved all in for 216,000, and Salerno took a minute before calling with K♦10♣ for top pair. Sciacca had K♠J♠ for flush and straight draws, and he spiked the Q♣ on the river to make his straight and double up.
