Three players brewed a pot of over 50,000 and the A♠7♥4♦10♣ turn was already on the felt. Iurii Okolovich checked from the small blind before the big blind did the same, and Maksim Arshinenkov flicked in a bet of 45,500. Only Okolovich called.
When the 7♦ hit the river, Okolovich checked once more, and Arshinenkov fired 125,000. After a few moments of thought, Okolovich surrendered the pot.

On a board of 3♣Q♣7♣7♥, cards went on their backs with Giorgos Chrysostomou in middle position at risk against Miroslav Rizov.
Giorgos Chrysostomou: A♥Q♥ 
Miroslav Rizov: 9♣6♣
Chrysostomou hit top pair on the flop, but Rizov had a flush, so Chrysostomou had no hopes to improve his hand with the 10♥ river and he was eliminated.

Huseyin Akgul opened to 7,000 from under the gun, but Viktor Iarilov to his left thee-bet to 21,000. All the other players folded to Akgul, who four-bet to 52,000. Iarilov made the call.
Both players checked on a flop of Q♥4♥10♣. Then after Akgul checked again on the 9♥ turn, Iarilov bet 55,000. Akgul eventually called and it was the last action of the hand, as they checked on the 5♥ river.
Akgul flipped over A♦Q♣ for a pair, but it wasn't enough to beat Iarilov's flush with A♠K♥.

A player opened to 6,000 in early position, and the cutoff called before Seyed Safari three-bet to 12,000 on the button. Sofia Merkulova was in the big blind, and used her full thirty seconds before putting in a four-bet to 40,000. The early position raiser, and the cutoff folded, while Safari made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of K♣8♦5♠, and Merulova checked to Safari who announced all-in, for 110,000. Merkulova snap-called, tossing her 104,000 across the line.
Sofia Merkulova: A♣K♥
Seyed Safari: J♦J♣
Merkulova out-flopped the pair of jacks of Safari and the 6♣ turn, and 4♦ river changed nothing as she collected her double.

Niall Farrell opened 10,000 in early position and the action folded around Aleksey Savenkov who made the call. Savenkov is fresh off his $1,100 Mystery Bounty victory here in Northern Cyprus, taking home $85,000 just a few short days ago.
The dealer spread a flop of 4♠3♠3♣, and Savenkov check-called a continuation bet of 8,000 from Farrell.
The 2♦ turn received checks from both players, and when the 4♣ completed the board on the river, Savenkov dropped a bet of 6,500 across the line.
Farrell thought about it for a few moments, and made the call. Savenkov rolled his A♥Q♠ over, and Farrell mucked his hand.
