Dmitrii Astratov moved all in before the flop and Andreas Christoforou called for 175,000.
Andreas Christoforou: J♣J♥ 
Dmitrii Astratov: Q♠Q♥
"Jack of diamonds. Sorry, man," Christoforou said as he pleaded for a jack, but the dealer instead turned over a board of 7♣8♣5♠3♠2♠ to keep Astratov's queens in the lead and send Christoforou to the rail.

Around 120,000 was already in the pot as Chady Ojeil and Roman Stoica went to the turn on a board of J♣2♥4♣5♣. Stoica then bet 45,000 from early position and Ojeil called on the button.
The river was the A♠ and Stoica checked. Ojeil bet 220,000 and Stoica snap-folded.
"Very nice hand. Pocket threes win the hand. See what a great champion," tablemate Ionel Anton joked with Ojeil as he stacked up the big pot.

Felipe Ketzer opened to 7,500 from middle position and received calls from Bart Lybaert in the cutoff and Victor Yugay on the button before Sergey Bortsov three-bet to 27,000 from the small blind.
Ketzer briefly considered his options before putting in a four-bet to 68,500 which was enough to force a fold from all three of his opponents.

Heads-up on a flop of 9♣3♥A♠, Michel Habib bet 50,000 from the button and Ivan Tukmachev called in middle position.
The turn was the 8♣ and Habib moved all in. Tukmachev had around 40,000 remaining and called with K♠9♠ for a pair of nines. Habib, though, had A♦K♦ for top pair.
The river came the 7♦ and Tukmachev was sent to the rail.
"It's Christmas time," Habib said as he took the pot.

Alisa Sibgatova opened to 8,000 from the hijack and was called by a player in the big blind.
The flop came 6♥4♥3♦. The big blind checked, Sibgatova bet 8,000 and the big blind called.
Sibgatova bet again for 12,000 when checked to on the 10♦ turn and this time it was enough to force a fold from her opponent.

A player in middle position raised to 7,000 before Andrey Litvinov three-bet to 20,000 on the button. Yunsheng Sun then moved all in for 180,500 in the small blind and action folded back to Litvinov, who tanked for a minute before calling.
Yunsheng Sun: A♥K♠
Andrey Litvinov: J♣J♦
The flop came 5♥8♣J♥ and Sun was already standing up from his seat as Litvinov hit top set. The rest of the board came 2♣9♦ and Litvinov took the pot to send Sun to the rail.
