Three ways to the 10♦Q♠5♣ flop with around 24,5000 in the middle. Gergo Nagy checked from the big blind, and Eelis Parssinen checked out of the hijack, but Jean-Robert Bellande tossed out a bet of 15,000 from the button. Nagy folded and Parssinen called.
A 5♦ arrived on the turn, prompting a second check from Parssinen. Bellande slid out a stack of chips equalling a pot-sized bet and Parssinen immediately released his cards.
Maximilian Wieser raised to 5,500 from the cutoff and only Quan Zhou called from the big blind.
Both players checked to the river on the 9♥8♥7♦10♠A♥ runout before Zhou bet 5,000. Wieser raised to 15,000, and Zhou called.
Wieser turned over the nut flush with A♦A♠K♥Q♥ and he was sent the pot.

Playing four-handed, Marcus Dieleman raised under the gun to 4,000 with Luuk van den Belt calling on the button and Siamak Shirazian calling out of the small blind.
Everyone checked the 6♥5♦7♦ flop to see a 5♣ hit the turn. Shirazian checked for a second time, and Dieleman tossed out a one T-5,000 chip. Van den Belt folded, but Shirazian called.
Shirazian checked one more time upon seeing the 10♠ river, and then folded in the face of Dieleman's bet of 25,000.
Laszlo Bujtas raised to 4,000 under the gun with Eelis Parssinen calling from the cutoff, Basem Abudavas calling on the button, and Gergo Nagy defending from the big blind.
The four players checked the 9♣9♥9♦ flop to see the 7♥ arrive on the turn. After two checks, Parssinen bet 7,000, which only Abudavas called.
The 2♥ on the river checked through and Abudavas won the pot with K♥K♣10♣4♠ for a boat, nines full of kings.
Lautaro Guerra raised the button to 4,000 and Laszlo Bujtas defended from the big blind.
Both players checked the 7♠J♦4♣ flop to see the A♦ arrive on the turn.
Bujtas checked again, and Guerra placed out a delayed continuation-bet of 8,000. Bujtas called.
One final check came from Bujtas on the 9♠ river, and Guerra fired out for 21,000. Bujtas released his cards, and Guerra pulled in an early pot.
