Martin Dam made it 42,000 under the gun and Imad Derwiche called from the cutoff. Raphael Schreiner squeezed it t around 180,000 from the small blind, and Dam shoved for 263,000. Derwiche moved all in himself for around 350,000, and Schreiner called with the covering stack.

Martin Dam: A♥J♥J♣10♦ All in
Imad Derwiche: A♦J♠9♠8♣ All in
Raphael Schreiner: A♠A♣K♥8♠

If Schreiner's pocket aces held up, he would bust two players and send his stack soaring to over a million.

However, the J♦7♠4♣ flop was a disaster for Schreiner, as Dam took the lead with a set of jacks. Schreiner picked up a flush draw on the K♠ turn, but the 3♥ river was a brick.

Dam tripled up to around 800,000, and Schreiner won the side pot to bust Derwiche.

Youness Barakat limped under the gun and Siamak Shirazian called from the button. Espen Sandvik called from the small blind before Maximilian Wieser raised to 60,000 from the big blind. Only Barakat called.

Wieser shoved his last 34,000 into the middle on the K♣9♣8♥ flop, and Barakat immediately called.

Maximilian Wieser: A♦Q♥J♦5♣ All in
Youness Barakat: Q♦J♠10♣7♣

Barakat turned a flush on the 6♣ turn, leaving Wieser drawing dead. An 8♠ on the river was irrelevant as all of Wieser's chips headed over to Barakat.

Level 10 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The flop was showing 6♠8♣K♠ in a heads-up pot between Gergo Nagy in the cutoff and Geoffrey Mooney out of the blinds. After some betting and raising, Nagy's remaining 200,000 or so got into the middle with Mooney trying to bust him.

Gergo Nagy: A♠K♥7♠3♦ All in
Geoffrey Mooney: J♣8♦8♥5♣

Mooney held a set of snowmen against the flush draw of Nagy.

The remainder of the board ran out J♥3♥, which didn't help Nagy, and he was the next casualty of the Main Event.

A pot of around 600,000 had already accumulated between Marcel Grubinger and Youness Barakat. Both players were staring at a board of 2♠K♥J♠K♦ and Barakat had put Grubinger all-in. Grubinger only had a few big blinds left, and after a long tank, he reluctantly called.

Marcel Grubinger: A♠Q♥6♠2♣ All in
Youness Barakat: J♥J♦10♦3♦

Grubinger was already drawing dead to Barakat's turned full house, and after the inconsequential 7♣ arrived on the river, Grubinger wished the players good luck as he made he was to the rail.

Youness Barakat limped under the gun and Tomasz Krzesinski called from the hijack. Geoffrey Mooney potted it from the button, and only Krzesinski called.

Krzesinski checked after the dealer spread out the Q♣7♥3♠ flop, and Mooney bet the pot for around 110,000. Krzesinski check-shoved, covering Mooney, and Mooney sigh-called for his remaining 120,000.

Geoffrey Mooney: A♥A♦10♠5♠ All in
Tomasz Krzesinski: 6♥5♣3♣3♥

Mooney had bare aces against the bottom set of Krzesinski.

Krzesinski turned Mooney dead on the 4♦ turn by improving to a straight. The 10♣ to complete the board was just a necessity, as all of Mooney's chips were absorbed into Krzesinski's stack.
