From the hijack, Marcel Grubinger raised to 85,000 and only Bassel Alanaz called on the button.
The action checked all the way to the river on the 10♣8♠J♥3♠9♦ runout. After Grubinger checked for the last time, Alanaz bet 95,000. Grubinger check-raised the pot, and Alanaz snap-folded.
At a nearby table, Michael Komatz was seen leaving the table and has been eliminated.
Laszlo Bujtas raised to 75,000 from the small blind and Sergei Nesterenko called out of the big blind.
Bujtas continued for 75,000 on the A♦K♠5♦ flop, and Nesterenko called.
A 4♦ on the turn caused Bujtas to check. Nesterenko asked the dealer, "How much is in there?", but it was Bujtas who immediately responded with "340".
Nesterenko then carved out a bet of 200,000, and Bujtas called.
A 10♠ arrived on the river to complete the board, getting one last check from Bujtas. Nesterenko stacked up all of his chips, which totalled about 400,000, and slid them across the betting line. Bujtas quickly called.
Nesterenko showed Q♦10♦10♥5♥ for a flush, but it was second-best to Bujtas' K♦J♦6♥3x for a higher flush.
Nesterenko was out, and Bujtas up to over two million.
Youness Barakat raised to 75,000 out of the hijack and Espen Myrmo called from the cutoff.
Check, check, followed the 4♥Q♦2♦ flop, with the 9♥ arriving on the turn. Barakat bet 150,000, which Myrmo called.
A 10♣ rolled off on the river, causing Barakat to check. Myrmo bet 315,000 and Barakat quickly called.
Myrmo showed a busted flush draw with A♥9♠8♥8♣, and lost the pot to Barakat's Q♥10♥7♣2♣ for two pair.
Level: 14
Blinds: 10,000/25,000
Ante: 25,000
The remaining players are going on a 15-minute break
A big pot just occurred between Eelis Parssinen and Aku Joentausta after Parssinen put all his chips in the middle preflop, and Joentausta called to try to take Parssinen out.
Eelis Parssinen: K♥K♦7♠7♦ 
Aku Joentausta: A♥A♣10♥9♣
Parssinen looked likely to be the next elimination of Day 1b, unless he found a lot of help from the dealer to crack the aces of Joentausta.
Nothing changed on the 4♣6♦3♣ flop, and the A♠ on the turn left Parssinen drawing dead. The 5♣ on the river was irrelevant and Joentausta's stack climbed to over two million.
Bassel Alanaz checked on the flop of 5♥8♥A♠ and Jelle de Kroon placed out a bet of 65,000. Alanaz called.
Alanaz checked the 2♦ turn, and De Kroon bet the pot for around 200,000. Alanaz jammed, and De Kroon called for his few remaining chips.
Jelle de Kroon: A♥K♥10♣7♦
Bassel Alanaz: A♦10♥4♦3♦
Alanaz turned the nut straight and De Kroon needed to spike a heart on the river to stay alive.
A J♦ rolled off to complete the board, which was no help to De Kroon, and he wished the table good luck as he ventured toward the exit.
With 91 entries recorded on Day 1b of the $25,000 PLO Main Event, play will continue today until only 14 remain. All of which will bag up their chips and return for Day 2 on Thursday, February 12, where they will all be in the money.
Maximilian Wieser raised the pot from under the gun with Bassel Alanaz calling in the cutoff, and Filip Aleksic calling from the big blind.
After Aleksic checked the 4♠A♠7♦ flop, Wieser jammed for his final 11,000. Alanaz and Aleksic called.
With Wieser all-in, Aleksic and Alanaz checked down the 7♥ turn and 4♦ river.
Wieser showed the winner with K♥Q♦10♥7♣ for trip sevens, and he tripled his stack.
