Simon Wiciak opened from the hijack and it was folded to Fabian Rolli, who shoved for his last 300,000 from the big blind. Wiciak quickly called to put Rolli at risk and hands were revealed.
Fabian Rolli: K♥Q♦
Simon Wiciak: A♦K♠
Rolli found himself dominated, but the Q♥10♠4♦2♥9♠ runout paired Rolli's queen to award him the double up.
In a blind versus blind situation, Simon Wiciak limped so Fahad El Mechraa only had to check his option to discover a flop of 6♦10♥7♥.
Both players checked to find the K♥ turn where Wiciak bet 75,000. El Mechraa raised all-in for a little bit more than 500,000, and Wiciak snap-called.
Fahad El Mechraa: K♠2♥
Simon Wiciak: K♦6♣
El Mechraa had top pair but Wiciak already had two pair, so after the 9♦ river, El Mechraa was eliminated in 21st place for €3,990.
Filippo Lazzaretto in the cutoff found himself at risk for 77,000 against Andrey Golubev in middle position.
Filippo Lazzaretto: A♣J♦
Andrey Golubev: 7♣7♥
Lazzaretto was on the edge of elimination after the flop of 3♦K♥9♣ and the 10♣ turn. But the J♣ river landed on the felt to give him the best pair, so he doubled up.
Dario Mancuso opened to 50,000 from under the gun and Michel Marcone in the cutoff raised all-in for 65,000. Brice de Kermadec defended from the big blind and Mancuso called.
Both Mancuso and De Kermadec checked all the way through a board of 4♦4♣A♣2♥10♠, so all the cards went on their backs.
Michel Marcone: A♦9♠
Brice de Kermadec: Q♦6♦
Dario Mancuso: 10♥10♣
Mancuso hit a full house on the river, so Marcone was eliminated.
Action folded around to the blinds, where Cyril Peralez shoved for his last 430,000. Filippo Lazzaretto called from the big blind to put Peralez at risk and hands were revealed.
Cyril Peralez: J♥J♦
Filippo Lazzaretto: A♠10♦
The 7♦K♦6♣3♣8♠ runout kept Peralez best with jacks and he doubled up through Lazzaretto.
Tung Nguyen raised to 50,000 from middle position, then called after Fabian Rolli on the button three-bet to 120,000.
The dealer fanned a flop of 2♣10♠Q♣ and Rolli continued for 70,000. Nguyen check-raised to 185,000, but Rolli raised all-in. Nguyen snap-called, being the player at risk for 505,000.
Tung Nguyen: A♠A♣
Fabian Rolli: K♦Q♥
Nguyen had the best pair with aces and doubled up after the 4♦J♣ runout.
Clément Gouges moved all-in for 270,000 from under the gun and he was called by Loris Corbelli to his left.
Clément Gouges: A♥10♣
Loris Corbelli: A♠K♠
On a board of 9♠4♣2♠7♥5♠, Corbelli hit a flush, leaving no chance for Gouges who was eliminated.
