While Gerald Karlic bet the 
river for 325,000 and folded to a shove, flashing a deuce and being shown 
for the nut straight, Govert Metaal on his table got up to head into the break. The Dutchman had one more story to tell, though, as he five-bet to 625,000 and folded to Karlic's six-bet shove while revealing pocket kings.
"He had aces," Metaal added and Karlic just grinned. Both remain well above the average and below are further assorted counts in the upper cash game area.

"I only saw one card," Mikalai Vaskaboinikau said after pushing for 205,000 from the small blind and being called by Felix Schulze. The latter turned over 
and the Belorussian had 
, which caused plenty of chuckles around the table.
The board came 
and Vaskaboinikau doubled his short stack.
Gary Banks faced a raise to 55,000 by Pavel Shirshikov and three-bet to 192,000 in the small blind. That did the trick to force a fold.
Aleksandar Tomovic got through with a four-bet shove and has around the starting stack now.

The cash game tables in the main casino area of the Sochi Casino & Resort are starting to break, but there are still a number of tables and indeed players still seated downstairs.
They still include Pierre Neuville (pictured), whose stack has taken a dent since the start of the day, as well as Moritz Dietrich whose stack has gone in the other direction.
Also in the field downstairs is 2017 WSOP bracelet winner Nadar Kakhmazov, who has a good record in final tabling big events here in Sochi. We will have to wait and see how he gets on.
