Royalsash: 8♦8♠
HaiCaDa was ahead and remained that way on the 5♣10♣J♣ flop. The 9♦ turn gave Royalsash some additional outs, but the 5♥ river saw HaiCaDa double up.

The 2026 King's Million European Poker Championship at King's Resort, Rozvadov, continues today with Day 3 of the €1,000 Mystery Bounty. The field has been whittled down from 1,863 entries to just 24 players, who will return for Day 3 this afternoon after seven hours of play on Day 2.
The biggest beneficiary of the €1,583,550 prize pool so far has been Axel Bayout, who yesterday pulled the maximum bounty of €150,000 to nearly equal first-place money in one pull. Bayout sits 8th in chips as he remains in contention for the King’s Royal Scepter and the additional first-place prize of €166,100.
Coming into Day 3 with the chip lead is Xerxes I, who has been the first player to eclipse the 10,000,000 chip mark.
