Muharrem Atsiz opened to 1,500 and earned one caller. Julien Trad then three-bet to 3,300 only for Atsiz to four-bet, making it 16,000 in total. The cold-caller folded and Trad was in the tank.
"Will you show if I fold?" he inquired. There was no answer and Trad let go, claiming in table chat he had pocket jacks.
The same table also features Tugce Hursoz, who has apparently already nearly doubled her stack. Indeed, there are 42 players out of 43 entries remaining according to the screens.

river, Aksoy checked the third street in a row and Sarkis bet 27,000 in order to force an instant fold. Sarkis claimed the pot without showdown and appears to be the early chip leader.
