On a 
board we witnessed a check from Nurlan Boobekov in the small blind. Next door neighbor Mustafa Biz in the big blind bet out 32,500 and the decision was on Boobekov, the Aussie.
Boobekov thought for a long time, and at one point the floor gave the one minute warning. Ten seconds later Boobekov made the call. Biz immediately mucked, apparently he didn't have much of a hand. Boobekov made a small fist pump and mucked as well.

It looks like this is Maksym Panyak's day. Everything is going according to plan it seems, he's tearing it up here in Cyprus. Without us witnessing huge pots, Panyak is slowly but steadily growing his stack.
Just now we saw him win another small one. On 
we saw Ivan Sheptytskyi check call a 9,000 bet. The turn was the 
and Sheptytskyi checked again. Panyak bet out 19,500 and Sheptytskyi folded.
Just to show he's running good, Panyak showed the 
while raking in the chips. Panyak is the chip leader of the tournament by a mile, he has well over 1.1 million in chips. With a total of 9.9 million in play, he already has final table average.

Igor Ovcharenko, who's stacks aren't as neatly organized as we wished they were, but sure has an impressive stack, opened for 8,000 from middle position. Oleksandr Zlotnik on the button pushed all in for about 50,000, and Ovcharenko made the call.
Before the flop, the battle wasn't that uneven with 
for Ovcharenko, and 
for Zlotnik. The 
massively favored Zlotnik though, making his chances to double up enormous. Ovcharenko did have some back doors, and the 
on the turn was everything but a blank.
The 
on the river made Ovcharenko's straight, and Zlotnik could do nothing but shrug and leave the table.

: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
The likeable Halid Titaev has just been eliminated from the tournament. From the under the gun position, he eventually got his stack all in against Ivan Sheptytskyi who was seated in the big blind.
We're unsure of the exact action leading up to the clash, but we did see the outcome. Sheptytskyi had the better hand with 
while Titaev had 
.
For a second we just saw the 
on the flop, but it was accompanied by an 
and the 
. The 
on the turn and 
on the river didn't help Titaev who left the tournament area not long after.

Sergii Minaiev bet 9,000 from the small blind on a 
board and Turker Baloglu, with his headphones on the side of his head, made the call from the under the gun postion.
The 
fell on the turn and Minaiev bet out 15,000. Again Baloglu made the call.
The completed the board. Minaiev hesitated for a bit, and eventually checked. Baloglu thought about it; "I'm gonna look stupid", he said after some time, eventually checking behind.
Minaiev showed 
for absolutely nothing. Baloglu opened 
and repeated "Now I look stupid!"
Bjoeern Weisler, the German seated in seat two, added "Just because of those Mickey Mouse ears" with a big smile. Baloglu laughed it off and continued to stack his new found chips.

Oleksii Khoroshenin opened for 8,000 from early position, and Torbey Jaque made the call from the cutoff. Kassis Said made it 18,000 from the button, and both blinds quickly folded. Khoroshenin made the call, Jaque folded.
"Position!" laughed Said from the button. Khoroshenin laughed.
Both players checked the entire 
board. "You have tens?" asked Khoroshenin as he showed his pocket threes. It wasn't tens though, but something very similar. Said tabled 
and took it down.
