Dimitrios Gkatzas opened his button to 50,000 with 6♠6♥. David Hu defended J♣9♦ in the big blind and check-called Gkatzas' continuation-bet of 30,000 on the 2♣J♠4♦ flop.

The 4♣ turn prompted Hu to lead out for 65,000. Gkatzas called with his pocket pair, but his sixes hit the muck when Hu sized up to 110,000 on the 8♣ river.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Dimitrios Gkatzas made it 50,000 to go under the gun. Paawan Bansal flat-called in the small blind, and Ding Fan defended his big blind.

All three players tapped the table on the 3♥7♥10♣ flop, leading to the K♦ turn. It was once again checked to Gkatzas, who bet 75,000. Bansal called before Fan raised to 250,000.

Gkatzas had been taking a stab at the pot with A♠8♥ and quickly got out of the way, but Bansal wanted to see a river and called. The Q♦ river was subsequently quickly checked to showdown.

Bansal tabled A♥J♥ for the rivered nuts, leaving the 7♣3♣ of Fan in the dust and overtaking him in the counts.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Dimitrios Gkatzas opened to 50,000 in early position, and was three-bet to 150,000 by Roman Stoica on the button. Gkatzas moved all in when it folded back to him, and Stoica was quick to call off his stack of 1,070,000.

Roman Stoica: Q♥Q♣ All in
Dimitrios Gkatzas: A♣K♠

Gkatzas paired up on the 7♥K♥8♣ flop, providing him with a big lead. The 9♣ turn did not help Stoica, and the K♦ river upgraded Gkatzas to trips to secure Stoica's elimination.

Maaravi continued for 65,000 on the A♥8♣3♥ flop, and both opponents called. The 4♠ turn was then checked through.

The river was the K♠ and Iaculli slid forward a tower of blue 25,000 chips for a bet of 500,000. O'Driscoll took a few seconds before folding, while Maaravi quickly gave up his hand.

Thomas Bazin opened 10♥10♦ to 50,000 in the cutoff, seeing the action fold to Dimitrios Gkatzas in the big blind. He put in a large three-bet to 250,000 with A♥2♣, which Bazin quickly called.

Gkatzas paired up on the A♠9♣K♦ flop, on which he continued for 100,000. His bet ended the hand, as Bazin quickly mucked his pocket pair to forfeit the invested chips.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Eyal Maaravi raised to 50,000 in the hijack and Bora Kurtulus called in the small blind. Ivan Uzunov then three-bet to 200,000 in the big blind, and only Maaravi called.

The flop came 8♥A♥A♦ and Uzunov bet 110,000. Maaravi called, and the 9♦ fell on the turn.

Uzunov then bet 200,000, and Maaravi again called. The K♥ fell on the river and Uzunov checked to Maaravi, who moved all in.

A host of cameras gathered around the table as Uzunov went deep into the tank, taking nearly five minutes and burning through multiple time banks. He eventually folded for his last 650,000, and Maaravi took the pot.
