Mehdi Chaoui: A♠J♠

The action was picked up as Italo Martin Palao Modena was all in for roughly 45,000 from under the gun, and at risk against Erdal Gulseven.
Italo Martin Palao Modena: 8♠8♦
Erdal Gulseven: K♠K♥
The 5♥6♣9♣K♦2♥ board only served to improve Gulseven to top set, sending Modena out of the tournament for this particular buy-in.
Thomas Alfred Mayer raised to 6,000 under the gun, which only Yuxi Huang called in the big blind.
Mayer continued for 5,000 on an A♦8♣6♠ flop, before betting another 15,000 on the 3♦ turn, with Huang calling both times.
When Huang checked for a third time on the 5♠ river, Mayer bet 65,000, leaving just 1,000 behind. Huang didn't take long before deciding to call.
Mayer tabled 8♠8♦, showing a flopped set, and Huang showed A♣10♥, confirming the pot was going in Mayer's direction.
Sergio Aido limped in on the button before calling when the big blind raised to 9,000.
On a 7♦6♥5♠ flop, the big blind moved all in for 26,000, and Aido beat him into the pot.
Big Blind: K♣Q♣
Sergio Aido: 9♥8♥
It was as bad as it could be for the big blind, who was drawing dead to a chop.
The 8♣ turn made a chop possible, but the 2♥ river was no help, seeing Aido scoop the pot.
Level: 8
Blinds: 1,500/3,000
Ante: 3,000
Daniel Koloszar raised to 5,000 on the button and faced a three-bet to 17,500 from Sergio Aido in the big blind. Koloszar responded with a four-bet jam for roughly 67,500, and Aido snap-called.
Daniel Koloszar: A♠8♥
Sergio Aido: K♠K♦
Koloszar picked up some extra outs on the 5♣5♦6♦7♥ turn, but the 7♦ river was unforthcoming.
