Danilo Donnini in the big blind and Joao Amador in the hijack were heads up in a pot worth 15,000. Donnini fired a bet of 7,300 on the Q♦10♠4♠ flop, and Amador called.
The 3♥ turn was then checked through to the J♥ river, where Donnini reaggressed with a bet of 16,800.
Amador spent a few minutes in the tank, cutting out calling chips before moving all in. Donnini immediately folded his cards, and the pot was shipped to Amador without showdown.

Joris Ruijs flicked in a raise to 2,000 in the hijack, and Boris Pesic defended his big blind. Ruijs continued for 2,500 on the J♣A♠10♦ flop, which Pesic quickly check-called.
Pesic also checked the 7♠ turn. Ruijs sized up to 12,000, and Pesic took one last look at his cards before adding them to the muck.

Taran Parmar: 10♦10♣
Turan won the flip by making a pair on the K♦3♥9♠6♥Q♦ board and doubled up.

Suren Pahlevanyan moved all in for 6,000, and was put at risk by Thomas Graupner in the big blind.
Suren Pahlevanyan: J♣7♣
Thomas Graupner: K♠6♠
The 6♥2♥10♥ flop kept Graupner in the lead, as did the 4♦ turn.
However, the J♠ river saw Pahlevanyan leapfrog into the lead and keep his seat in the tournament.

Three-way to the Q♠8♥4♠ flop, Paraskevas Tsokaridis checked from the big blind to Riccardo Trevisani in the hijack. Trevisani bet 3,000, Petre Ionescu called in the cutoff, and Tsokaridis followed suit.
The K♠ turn was then checked to Ionescu. He tossed in a bet of 10,000, garnering two quick folds and taking down the pot.

The action was joined as Stefano Palma was all in and at risk versus Igaal Hanouna.
Stefano Palma: A♠A♣
Igaal Hanouna: A♦K♦
The 5♦3♥4♦ flop brought some chop opportunities, and the K♥ turn even gave Hanouna some ways to win.
Alas, the 10♠ river was safe for Palma's pocket aces, and he pulled in a double up.
