The players have been sent on a further 20-minute break.
Ignazio Ulma moved all in for 98,000, and Maria Evans rejammed for 142,000, both in middle position. Andrew Cutajar was in the small blind, and he had a peek at his cards before immediately four-bet jamming with the covering stack, forcing out the rest of the table.
Ignazio Ulma: 5♣5♥
Maria Evans: K♦K♣
Andrew Cutajar: A♣K♥
Evans was in great shape, and the 10♠7♣2♠ flop was clear.
The A♦ hit on the turn to put Cutajar in front, much to Evans' disgust, but Cutajar then felt the pain of being usurped after the 5♦ hit on the river, sending Ulma the triple-up.
Ulma could barely believe it, and celebrated with gusto, while Cutajar won the side-pot to bust Evans.
We are now at 39 players in Day 1g, with 36 due to qualify for Day 2.
Carl Williams jammed for 108,000 under the gun, and was looked up by Franky Green in the big blind.
Carl Williams: 8♠8♥
Franky Green: A♦Q♥
It was a fair fight, and the J♣9♠3♣ flop was clear for Williams. However the A♠ hit on the turn to put Green in front, and there was no two-outer on the 4♣ river.
Nils Knofler was sweeping in a huge pot, having found a big call for 250,000 on the river against Bogdan Martynczuk.
Knofler had 8♠8♣ for third pair on 9♥3♣2♦J♠6♥, while Martynczuk was bluffing with the missed gutshot with A♦4♥.
Giovanni Impollonia was all-in for around 80,000 and at risk against Ivan Lo Monaco.
Giovanni Impollonia: K♠Q♠
Ivan Lo Monaco: A♣5♦
Impollonia needed some help, but only Lo Monaco improved on the 5♥3♥3♦2♦9♠ runout.
Tomas Major opened to 20,000 from the button, and Giuseppe Vinci defended the big blind.
The A♥7♦3♦ flop was checked to the 5♣ turn, where Vinci led out with a bet of 20,000.
Major stuck around for the 4♦ river, and Vinci fired out a further bet of 65,000. Major called, and mucked when Vinci tabled 4♠2♣ for the wheel straight.

Franky Green was all-in for 155,000 and at risk against Wesley Ferris.
Franky Green: A♠K♣
Wesley Ferris: A♦Q♥
Green had Ferris pipped, and the kicker played on the 10♦5♠2♣4♣A♣ runout.
Thomas Grahs was all-in for 138,000 and at risk against Tomas Major.
Thomas Grahs; A♦A♥
Tomas Major: Q♥Q♦
It was a cooler, and Grahs had the best of it, the K♠10♠2♦7♥3♦ runout confirming his double-up.
