Köster also raised the next button to 66,000 and Ulrich Pauls three-bet to 160,000 from the small blind. "Oh come on," Köster joked and Pauls replied "you can't always steal my small blind." Köster folded and was shown the

Zarnegar raised to 80,000 on the button and Marcin Horecki defended the big blind. Both checked the 
flop before betting the 
turn for 60,000, Zarnegar called. Horecki bet the 
river for 100,000 and was called to flip over 
for a set as winning hand.
Over on table one, Alaettin Keles made it 75,000 to go from the cutoff and Michal Lubas called from the big blind. On the 
flop, Lubas check-called a bet of 75,000 before both checked the 
turn and 
river. Lubas rolled over 
and that won the pot.
