Stanislav Manilov:
Gleb Tremzin:
The flop provided the king and yet it was bad news for Manilov, as Tremzin was way ahead with a set. It was all over after the turn, making the river a formality.

There was a discussion between partypoker Sponsored Pro Anatoly Filatov and another Russian player at the table. We heard tablemate Steve O'Dwyer's name mentioned a couple of times, and it culminated in Filatov asking O'Dwyer the following question.
"Steve, what have you won?" asked Filatov, "EPT Monte Carlo, couple of High Rollers."
O'Dwyer smiled. "Seven, actually," he replied.
"Don't worry," Filatov said to his friend, "He wins a lot but he's a fish! Very tight. He likes to travel a lot!"
"And now you come to Russia!" exclaimed a smiling Martin Kabrhel.
After a raise by Oleg Manilov, Mikhail Korotkikh shoved out of the big blind and picked up a quick call by Manilov.

There is just one table remaining in the theatre due to a break soon, and fewer than 300 hopefuls remain.
Over in the main room, Gerald Karlic three-bet a cutoff open from 125,000 to 325,000 and Yury Masliankou moved all in from the small blind. That got rid of everyone including Karlic, after giving it some thought.

David Coates slowly walked out of the theatre to check out the main tournament area and the worst fears arose quickly. However, the Brit quickly assured that the exact opposite was the case.
According to Coates, there was a raise and a three-bet before Aleksandra Babich four-bet all in from the button. Coates called all in with pocket aces in the big blind and Babich had only. A king on the flop was all that came and Coates scored a big double.

A player opened from the hijack to 100,000 and the button three-bet to 260,000. Arthur Goboya was in the small blind and he four-bet all in for 720,000. The initial raiser folded and the button called.
Goboya:
Button:
It was a race, and the flop came . The turn was the giving no help to Goboya, who was utilising the "Stay in your seat" theory when it came to winning flips, as opposed to the "Standing up and putting on your coat" theory.
Whatever theory he was using, it worked as the came on the river handing him the double up.
"Why the river?" asked his opponent, "Why not on the flop!"
