Players are on their second 15-minute of the day.
The floor have just announced that eight levels will be played today, which means four more levels are on the agenda.
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
There were around 750,000 chips in the pot on a board of 9♠K♥4♦7♥10♥ when Dumitru Pora checked and Bogdan Jontulovic fired 300,000 on the river. Pora was in the tank for quite some time while he thought it over, but eventually decided to fold and showed A♥K♦ for top pair and the nut flush blocker.
"You got lucky! I mean, on the river," said Jontulovic as he showed a flopped set with 9♣9♦ to rake in the healthy pot.
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
As soon as the bubble burst, the action folded to Antonios Poziadis in the small blind who shoved, and Seref Anar called off his remaining stack of around 150,000.
Seref Anar: A♣K♠ 
Antonios Poziadis: A♥4♣
Anar was in a great spot to double up, but an unfortunate meant he was eliminated as Poziadis paired his four on the 8♠2♣J♥5♠4♠ board.
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Dean Hutchison opened to 35,000 from the hijack and Assyl Tleuzhanov called from the button.
The flop came K♠10♠3♣ and Hutchison check-called a 75,000 bet from Tleuzhanov.
Hutchison checked the 9♥ turn and Tleuszhanov shoved, covering Hutchison who had around 300,000 behind. Hutchison made the call for his tournament life.
Dean Hutchison: 10♥10♦
Assyl Tleuzhanov: Q♠J♥
Hutchison had flopped a straight only for Tleuszhanov to turn a straight to take the lead. Hutchison was unable to improve on the 2♥ river and he was sent to the rail in brutal fashion.
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Maxime Chilaud shoved for 59,000 from under the gun on the bubble and when the action got to Ali Al-Kubasi in the small blind, he shoved for around 600,000. Evagoras Evagorou was in the big blind with a bigger stack, but elected to fold.
Maxime Chilaud: K♣K♠
Ali Al-Kubasi: A♣10♥
Chilaud was ahead with his Cowboys but needed to fade the runout with the entire room rooting against him. However, even with the backing of 78 other players, Al-Kubasi couldn't improve on the 8♥Q♦6♥6♠2♥ runout, and Chilaud survived.
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Igor Abelmasov limped in from the small blind, Ruslan Bakhtiev shoved from the big blind with a covering stack and Abelmasov, who had started the hand with 505,000, made the call for his tournament life.
Igor Abelmasov: J♠J♥
Ruslan Bakhtiev: 10♠2♠
Abelmasov's jacks held up on the 5♠3♣8♣9♥4♥ runout and he doubled up through Bakhtiev.
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
