With 26,800 in the middle four ways to the 7♦6♠4♦A♠ turn, the action checked around. There was no betting action on the 6♣ river either and Leonid Yanovski was the first to show, exposing the J♣9♥7♠5♦.
Michal Schuh had that beat with the Q♣9♠8♣6♦ for trips sixes and Nadjim Haddad as well as Heiko Hinkelmann mucked.
In a duel cutoff versus big blind, Predrag Vulovic and Ali Balci got their chips into the middle. The cards were already exposed as both had flopped a wheel on A♠3♠2♣ with a redraw to a better straight.
Balci's 8♥6♦5♥4♣ and Vulovic with the 9♠7♠5♦4♥ ended up chopping the pot with the 9♥ turn and K♥ river.
Heads-up to the 9♠6♣4♦ flop, Nadjim Haddad checked and then called a bet worth 7,000 by Leonid Yanovski. He led the J♦ turn for 15,000 to see Yanovski come along and checked the 7♥ river.
Yanovski bet 40,000, sending his opponent into the tank.
"I gonna trust you once ... you had nothing?! I still got chips," Haddad murmured and promised "we will have another match" before mentioning he let go a set of fours.

On a heads-up turn of Q♠6♠2♦, Ali Balci fired a bet of 30,000 and Ryan Oliver called while his opponent motioned "just stick it in" in German. Balci then instantly jammed the J♣ turn and Oliver folded.
Balci flashed only the Q♥ and declared "nuts with flush draw".
Florian Langmann raised to 2,000 and earned calls from Paul Van Straten as well as Peter Lieber. Sebastian Langrock then made it 8,000 to go and each of his opponents came along. Langmann bet the pot for 33,500 on the 9♣4♦3♦ flop and Langrock sigh-called after long deliberation.
The all-in in the dark by Langmann followed before the 9♠ turn and Langrock tank-folded to get shown the 7♦6♣5♣.
Paul Van Straten raised to 1,500 and called a pot-sized three-bet to 5,400 by Sebastian Langrock, as they checked the A♠4♠3♣ flop.
"How much is in the pot?" Van Straten inquired before he then bet 11,500 into 12,300.
"Oh, discount?" Langrock joked and called. Both checked the 4♦ river and Van Straten tabled his A♦10♦7♠3♥ for aces and tens, which Langrock had beat holding K♣Q♠7♣2♠ for a flush.
Michael Strauch raised to 2,000 and earned calls from Piero Alioto as well as Angelo Falletta. On the Q♠J♣8♦ flop, Falletta checked and Strauch bet 5,200 for Alioto to fold and Falletta to call.
Both players checked the K♣ turn and Falletta also checked the A♣ river. Strauch bet 10,000 and then called all-in for 38,800 when Falletta check-raised the pot. The latter shook his head and exposed Q♣Q♦6♠3♥ for a set while Strauch doubled with the K♠4♣3♣3♦ for a flush.
