With 100,000 gathered in the center, Adnan Dahic checked the K♥5♥Q♦8♠4♣ river from the big blind to Bengt Hallner on the button. Hallner then moved all in, putting Dahic at risk for 31,000.
Dahic went deep into the tank. Eventually, the clock was called on him. He was given a 30-second countdown, during which he folded to forfeit the pot.
Hallner dragged the massive mountain of chips, showing the 8♥ as he did so.
Jaaefar Bettioui raised to 2,500 from early position, and Giuseppe Dedoni called out of the small blind. Pau Vela then shoved for 19,000 from the big blind, which Bettioui called. Dedoni jammed over the top, covering both players, and Bettioui went deep into the tank.
Bettioui had around 50,000 in his stack and deliberated for quite a while. In the end, he settled on a fold, and the other two players revealed their cards.
Pau Vela: A♣9♣ 
Giuseppe Dedoni: A♥Q♠
Dedoni's ace-queen stayed in front on the 3♥5♥7♣2♠10♦ runout, sending Vela to the rail and adding his chips, along with Bettioui's contribution, to Dedoni's stack.
With roughly 40,000 already in the pot. Ivo Colaco pushed his stack of 95,000 in on the button on the 7♣6♣7♥ flop. Vincent Robert eventually looked him up from the small blind, covering his stack.
Ivo Colaco: 9♦7♦
Vincent Robert: J♥J♦
Colaco's trips remained best on the Q♠4♥ runout, doubling him up to a triple-average stack.
Ehsan Amiri raised to 2,500 from middle position, with Barbara Fugivala and Konstantin Shmaratov calling out of the blinds.
All three checked the 6♦9♦10♠ flop before the 4♣ landed on the turn. Fugivala led out for 4,000, and both of her opponents called.
Another round of checks followed on the 6♠ river, and Fugivala took down the pot with 9♥8♥ for a pair of nines.
In a pot of 25,500, Roberto Romanello checked the 2♣K♠3♦J♣ turn from early position to Ihor Zakharets in the hijack. Zakharets put his opponent all-in for just under the size of the pot, and Romanello called off after some thought.
Roberto Romanello: K♥Q♥
Ihor Zakharets: A♠A♣
Romanello failed to crack Zakharets' aces on the 2♥ river, sending Romanello to the exit.
The next hand, Zakharets raised to 2,500 in middle position. It folded to big blind Benjamin Spragg, who jammed in his stack of 15,200. Zakharets swiftly called.
Benjamin Spragg: A♦K♣
Ihor Zakharets: A♠7♠
Spragg flopped top pair on Q♠2♥K♠, but Zakharets contested with a flush draw. The 4♥ turn and 3♥ river remained free of spades, however, doubling up the PokerStars Ambassador.
Four-way to the 5♠Q♠2♠ flop with about 15,000 in the pot, the action checked around to Nazar Buhaiov in the cutoff, who bet 3,500. Jamie O'Connor called from the small blind before Mykhailo Gutyi check-raised to 14,000 from the big blind. Piet Brandt then jammed for 49,500 from the hijack.
Buhaiov went deep into the tank, continuously looking back at his cards. After about two minutes, he folded, and O'Connor also got out of the way. Gutyi called and the cards were turned over.
Piet Brandt: K♦K♠
Mykhailo Gutyi: A♠4♠
Brandt needed a runner-runner full house to beat Gutyi's flopped nut flush.
The board-pairing Q♦ turn gave Brandt a glimmer of hope, but it was quickly extinguished when the 8♥ river bricked out.
Brandt headed for the showers, while Gutyi climbed to almost 200,000. After the hand, Buhaiov indicated that he had folded a flush when faced with all the action.
