Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The cards were just being swept away, but Carsten Mawick had just eliminated Oleg Drews and Tommaso Marangi, holding queens and ace-king respectively, with pocket eights - flopping a set on a board that also featured an ace, with the money presumably going in preflop.
Mawick moves to 750,000 - might he be the player to catch Ludovic Uzan at the top of the Day 2 standings? He'll have to double his stack from here to do so.

Giovanni Caggia opened to 6,000 from the button, and was met with a three-bet to 21,500 by Charlie Rimmer in the small blind. Action back to Caggia, who called.
Rimmer continued with a bet of 18,000 on the K♠7♠6♥ flop, and Caggia called.
The 2♠ hit on the river, and Rimmer fired again, putting out a bet of 25,000. Caggia again quickly called.
The 2♣ river paired the board, and Rimmer went for the triple-barrel, sliding out a bet of 50,000. Caggia called promptly, but was shown the bad news when Rimmer tabled A♥K♣ for top pair kings, forcing Caggia to muck.

Raimund Longbottom jammed for 22,500 from the button and was looked up by Giuseppe Dedoni in the big blind.
Raimund Longbottom: 9♣7♣ 
Giuseppe Dedoni: A♦10♦
Longbottom needed some help, and he got it as he smashed the Q♣7♥7♦ flop, the K♥ turn and 5♣ river completing the runout.

Jordan Bamford is on his third bullet in this flight, but it could be third time lucky. He is up to 295,000 after busting Salvatore Genovese - Bamford held K♦K♠ on the 10♣6♠10♦J♣5♣ runout, while Genovese had K♥J♦, the chips going in preflop.

Massimo Arigo jammed from middle position for 36,000 and was looked up by Lorenzo Pannunzi in the big blind.
Massimo Arigo: 7♦7♣
Lorenzo Pannunzi: K♣Q♠
It was off to the races, but Arigo flopped top set on the 7♠6♠2♦ flop. It still wasn't sweat free from there, as his opponent turned a flush draw with the J♠ turn.
Much to Arigo's relief, the 5♦ river was a brick, sending him the double-up.
