Roman Verenko had entered not long ago and raised to 2,000. Marc Palatzky three-bet to 6,900 from the next seat and Berkan Balli cold-called, Verenko also came along.
The A♦9♠4♠ flop was checked to Palatzky and his bet of 7,000 won the pot without any further resistance.
Sebastian Juhlen bet the four-way turn of J♣9♦7♥9♠ for 2,500 and Roman Cieslik was the only caller. That brought the duo to the 8♠ river and Juhlen checked. Cieslik bet 6,000 and collected yet another pot, this time without showdown as Juhlen had folded.
Following a 8♥5♣3♦ flop, "Zimba Bwe" checked and Oswin Ziegelbecker bet 3,000. He faced a check-raise to 8,000 by "Zimba Bwe" to call and the local player then potted the J♣ turn. Ziegelbecker reluctantly jammed for around 42,000 and "Zimba Bwe" called.
Oswin Ziegelbecker: 6♦6♥3♥3♣
"Zimba Bwe": J♥7♦4♦2♥
The A♠ fell on the river as "Zimba Bwe" made a wheel to eliminate Ziegelbecker.
Just before the blinds went up, Tim Van Loo scooped a pot when he bet 3,500 into Alexander Schwarz on the Q♦9♥5♥5♦J♥ board. Schwarz folded and Van Loo raked in the small profit.
One table over, Romain Nattaf raised the pot from under the gun and earned one caller. Oleksandr Sadovyi reraised to 7,500 and Nattaf was the only caller.The K♣J♦J♥ flop was checked and Nattaf bet the 2♦ turn for 12,000. Sadovyi asked to see his stack before calling and Nattaf fired another 31,000 on the 9♥ river with about as much behind.
"I have a full but I don't know," Sadovyi murmured and Nattaf replied "so you gonna at least call?!"
Sadovyi, however, folded and was shown the 9♠8♣7♦6♠.
"So strong ..." Sadovyi added before glancing back at his book.
Level: 3
Blinds: 300/600
Ante: 600
Marc Palatzky made it 3,500 to go with the flop showing 10♥7♥5♦ and Giorgio Donzelli raised the pot to 16,200 for Palatzky to reluctantly call. That brought them to the 6♣ turn on which Palatzky checked.
Donzelli bet 30,000 and it was enough to force out his opponent.
Ryan Oliver bet the pot when checked to on the J♠5♦3♣ flop and earned calls from Angelo Falletta as well as Tim Grau. The 5♥ came on the turn and Oliver's bet of 6,500 took it down right there.
Beiyuan Yu took a massage immediately after sitting down and has already been involved in plenty of pots since. The latest hand saw him facing off with Oleksandr Sadovyi and the latter bet the pot for 27,000 on the 6♣5♣3♦A♥2♠ river.
Yu folded after a few seconds and Sadovyi flashed his J♣10♣4♥4♦ for a busted flush draw and straight blockers.
Day 1b is now up to 37 entries mid-way through level two and no player has been eliminated yet.
