During the first hand on the stone bubble, Adrian Strobel raised to 16,000 in middle position. Leo Worthington-Leese was already all-in for his final 1,000 in the small blind, after which Henry Wilken called in the big blind.
Strobel continued for 10,000 on the K♦A♥7♠ flop, seeing Wilken fold his 10♠10♦ face-up.
Leo Worthington-Leese: 9♥6♥ 
Adrian Strobel: A♠J♣
The room erupted in cheers as the 4♥ turn gave the crowd favorite a flush draw, but the enthusiasm was quickly tempered when the A♦ river made Strobel trips to lock up the pot and eliminate Worthington-Leese on the stone bubble.
However, four more all-in and calls were announced. On one table, Nikolaos Mouroutis had over-bet shoved his stack of 320,000 into a pot of 225,000 on a river of 4♦3♥2♦K♦A♣.
He had been looked up by Thomas Clack, who showed A♥4♥ for two pair when the floor had arrived. Mouroutis could only show 9♥9♣ for a caught bluff, sending him to the rail as well.
At another table, Rafael Navas had gone all in on the 4♥K♠J♦4♦10♦ river, being called by Erik Sturkenboom.
Navas showed K♥10♥ for kings and tens, but it was no good against the Q♦4♥ of Sturkenboom, who eliminated Navas on the stone bubble.
As the two remaining all-in players doubled up, the three eliminatees shared two min-cashes of €840, netting them €560 each.
The remaining players were all in the money as play continued with the mystery bounties in play.

Pavel Plotnikov jammed in his stack of 120,000 from middle position and was looked up by big stack Mengshi Tian on the button.
Pavel Plotnikov: A♣J♦
Mengshi Tian: Q♥10♣
Tian shot ahead on the 8♥Q♦10♥ flop with two pair, but the 9♥ turn made Plotnikov a straight to retake the lead. The K♥ river upgraded Tian to a flush, however, taking down the pot and eliminating Plotnikov.
