Petr Targa Eliminated by Konstantin Kostyakov
Level 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Pavel Novotny has successfully reentered, at least thus far, and almost doubled up his stack. Petr Targa did the same soon after registering for Day 1b, but suddenly his stack had melted to all but 7,150. Targa then raised from under the gun and Konstantin Kostyakov three-bet to 6,000 from two seats over. Targa moved all in and Kostyakov quickly called.
Targa: 
Kostyakov: 
The board ran out []Jc,7h,3s,9h,Ac] and the pair of tens held up, eliminating Targa. He can still reenter until the end of level 11 though, while Kostyakov is now on the up.

Curtis Millinghton Loses Flip
Level 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Two players with less than starting stack got their last chips in and it was Curtis Millinghton at risk with 
. His opponent Richard Horvath had and yawned at the flop of 
. "Of course the ace comes right away," Horvath said, then asked the dealer for a ten. While his wish wasn't granted on the 
turn, the 
river improved him and Horvath sent Millinghton to the rail.
Millinghton is hailing from the UK, but currently works in Prague and noticed the event on social media. "I actually saw it on the PokerNews Twitter. It seemed really nice and the affordable buy-in with such a guarantee is great. I play quite a bit of poker anyways and stay until Monday," Millinghton added and then registered for the Ticket & Ca$h. Coincidentally, the Main Event final table is on Monday and with another two starting days tomorrow, the Brit may very well be back in action then.

. Vaitiekünas was way ahead with 
and scored the double up thanks to a board of 
.
Asked why so many Lithunanian made it to Rozvadov, he said the following: "I was in my Sunday session and friends told me to play the Satellites on TonyBet, because there was so much overlay. I won the first step, then got into the next one and the Super Satellite had five packages guaranteed. Only two won the package, but we came over here with eight, because you got the nice hotel room included. And well, you know, Lithuanians love poker."

Daniela Jäger Dwindling
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Alexander Mikhalev's trend is definitely moving up, as is his stack. He just got involved in a raising war and made it 3,000 to go from under the gun. Daniela Jäger three-bet to 7,000 and Milan Sasek called.
Mikhalev four-bet to 23,000 and Jäger eventually folded, as did Sasek.
Gilbert Asmowidjojo then asked Jäger what she had folded.
"What can I do? I had kings," Jäger replied and Mikhalev quietly mentioned that he had aces, though neither player showed.
