, the small blind bet 300,000 and Abtellatif called. The 
turn and 
river were checked down and Abtellatif couldn't beat the 
of his opponent.
Christopher Andler bumped his stack up without showdown. Ka Him Li was his opponent to the 
river and Andler checked. Li bet 275,000 with 300,000 behind and folded to the check-shove of the Swede.

Philip Hollederer raised to 30,000 and was called by Roberto Duek, before short stack Victor Choupeaux moved all in for the last 146,000. Hollederer called and Duek then raised to 500,000, which forced an instant fold from Hollederer.
Victor Choupeaux: 
Roberto Duek: 
"Bravo," joked Hollederer and the board ran out 
to let Choupeaux triple up.

Level 5
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
The new blind level had already started and Gianluca Speranza was still in the think tank, more than five minutes had passed and a completed board showed 
. Mike Leah had bet 425,000 into a pot of 600,000 and Speranza eventually asked the usual question: "Will you show if I fold?" Leah didn't give any answer and another two minutes passed.
Someone called the clock, after all, and Speranza opted to call during the one minute extra time. Leah turned over 
for a full house and then said "I forgot my cards," while Speranza mucked 
. Another player remarked "it has been seven minutes, it's possible."
Speranza dropped all the way down to just 15 big blinds as a result, while Leah on his second bullet for the day jumped above the average.

: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Rasmus Vogt ahas been eliminated for the second time on flight 1d and won't be able to re-enter as per the single re-entry rule for each starting day. His bustout came as a result of a clash with table neighbor Roberto Duek, who has moved back to more than two starting stacks.
Rasmus Vogt: 
Roberto Duek: 
"We need a nine," Vogt said after the 
turn, but the wish of the Dane wasn't granted with a blank 
on the river. Slowly but surely, the remaining field of the fina €10,300 Main Event flight is being reduced with 210 out of 252 players remaining.
