Joni Jouhkimainen made it 140,000 to go from the hijack and Espen Myrmo jammed for 430,000 from the next seat. Jouhkimainen called when the action got back to him.
Espen Myrmo: A♥K♣5♦4♥ 
Joni Jouhkimainen: A♣K♥K♦3♦
Myrmo took a commanding lead in the hand after the 8♠6♠7♠ flop was delivered, as he improved to a straight. The remainder of the board came Q♥10♥, which didn't change anything, and Myrmo doubled through Jouhkimainen.

From the big blind, on a flop of K♥5♦A♠, Artur Martirosian check-called a small bet by Gergo Nagy, who was seated in the cutoff.
Martirosian checked again on the 4♦ turn, and Nagy bet 125,000. Martirosian check-jammed for around 440,000, and Nagy called to put Martirosian at risk.
Artur Martirosian: A♥K♠8♣6♣
Gergo Nagy: A♦J♥10♦2♠
Martirosian had top two pair, but Nagy had straight and flush outs he could hit to win.
However, the board-pairing K♣ river wasn't one of them as Martirosian improved to a full house to double-up.

Jorryt van Hoof started out with a limp from the button and Manuel Stojanovic completed out of the small blind. Alex Komaromi potted it to 120,000 from the big blind, which only Van Hoof called.
Komaromi bet the pot on the Q♠6♣8♣ flop and Van Hoof jammed fo 365,000. Komaromi called and the players flipped over their hands.
Jorryt van Hoof: Q♥10♦8♥7♦
Alex Komaromi: K♠K♦10♥9♦
Van Hoof had top two pair, but the K♥ on the turn gave Komaromi a set of kings, and meant Van Hoof needed to find a nine on the river to survive. A miraculous 9♠ fell on the river and Van Hoof doubled with a rivered gutshot straight.

Richard Gryko, Stanislau Melhui, and Matthew Wantman were just involved a three-way all-in, with Gryko holding the largest stack and the opportunity to eliminate two opponents.
Matthew Wantman: A♥A♦K♦10♥
Stanislau Melhui: A♣Q♠J♣9♣
Richard Gryko: Q♦J♥8♥6♦
Wantman had aces, but anything could happen with five cards to come. Gryko ended up with the best hand on the J♠2♣5♣7♥6♠ runout, as he rivered two pair, which meant Wantman and Melhui were out.
