When the player in the cutoff limped in, Olivier Fazio did the same on the button. Vakhtang Javakhisvili then raised to 3,300 from the small. The original limper folded, but Fazio then limp-raised to 10,000.
Javakhisvili, the table big stack, gave it some thought, but opted to return his cards to the dealer.
Catching the tail end of a pot between Maria Konnikova in the small blind and Gianluca Cedolia in the cutoff, Konnikova checked the completed 3♠A♥10♥8♣7♥ flop over to Cedolia.
Cedolia then placed an overbet of 15,700, which appeared to be about one and a half times the pot. Konnikova did not take long before she flicked in a call.
Cedolio briefly flashed a straight, prompting Konnikova to table 9♥8♥ to take down the pot with her flush.
Left with a very short stack following a previous altercation, Alexandre Bermon moved all in for 3,800 over a raise from Xavier Cortazar Vidal, who then called to put Bermon at risk.
Alexandre Bermon: A♥A♣ 
Xavier Cortazar Vidal: 9♠8♠
Bermon flopped top set on the A♦5♣7♦ flop, but still wasn't safe, as Cortazar Vidal had picked up a straight draw.
The K♥ turn and 5♠ river only served to improve Bermon to a full house, earning him a much-needed double-up.
Heads up to the K♦8♥7♥ flop, Mohamed-Said Taghla checked from the small blind to Josef Huber in the hijack. Huber announced a bet of 1,200, which Taghla quickly raised to 4,000.
Huber then moved all in for about 16,000, and Taghla quickly called without requesting a count.
Josef Huber: A♥4♥
Mohamed-Said Taghla: K♥9♥
No heart appeared on the J♦7♠ runout, and Taghla's top pair remained best to confirm Huber's elimination.
During the hand, Alexandre Reard stood up and left an adjacent table as he was also left without chips.
Arriving with 7,900 already in the pot, and a 7♣8♠5♠ flop face up on the felt, Alexandre Bermon placed a bet of 3,500 from middle position. In response, PokerStars Team Pro member David Lappin moved all in for 32,800 from the cutoff, and Bermon called.
David Lappin: A♠3♠
Alexandre Bermon: 5♦5♣
The J♠ turn brought immediate service for Lappin, whose double up was confirmed when the 4♥ completed the board.
Level: 6
Blinds: 300/600
Ante: 600
The action was picked up as Andrew Hulme had worked his stack of roughly 17,000 into the middle and was at risk versus Baizhan Baimukhametov.
Andrew Hulme: A♠Q♣
Baizhan Baimukhametov: A♥K♠
The 6♥9♠4♥ flop offered Hulme no help, and the K♣ turn saw him drawing dead.
The 2♣ completed the board as Hulme headed away from the table.
It folded to Omar Atta in the small blind. He limped in before he called big blind Tom Fuchs' raise to 2,000.
Both players checked the Q♣2♦7♥ flop, and Atta continued checking on the A♣ turn. Fuchs fired a bet of 3,000, which Atta called.
The 6♠ river then prompted Atta to lead out for 8,000. Fuchs spent some time in the tank, but ended up forfeiting the pot by mucking his cards.
