Laszlo Papai had gotten his stack of 210,000 in from the small blind and was at risk against Philipp Traber in the cutoff.
Laszlo Papai: Q♥Q♣
Philipp Traber: K♥K♣
Papai stood up, ready to hand his registration ticket to the floor. He would not need to sit back down as the 2♠3♦2♣8♥3♠ board brought no queen, eliminating him from the tournament.
Vasyl Laba had put most of his chips in preflop, creating a pot of roughly 200,000 chips. Robert Vranic was his opponent, and he put Laba all-in for 10,000 after Laba had checked to him.
Laba spent all his time banks trying to make the pay jump before calling off the rest of his chips.
Vasyl Laba: 9♣8♣
Robert Vranic: 7♥7♣
Laba had a straight draw against the set of Vranic, but it did not come in on the 4♦Q♦ runout, seeing Vranic make a full house instead.
Laba finished in 96th place, bubbling the pay jump to €4,160.
Darius Neagoe had raised to 30,000 in the cutoff and was flat-called by Zoran Stojanovic in the small blind. Big blind Fabio Peluso then squeezed in his stack of 200,000, folding out Neagoe.
Stojanovic made a quick call, however, and the players were ordered to show down.
Fabio Peluso: K♦J♦
Zoran Stojanovic: A♥10♥
The 6♥7♥2♠ flop diminished the outs of Peluso, and the Q♦ turn was of no help to him either. The 5♥ river saw Stojanovic lock up the pot with a flush, eliminating Peluso from the Main Event.
In a small pot of 125,000, small blind Terrance Reid and big blind Artem Komarov were on a river of 6♥10♣K♣3♣10♠. Reid then put Komarov all-in for
185,000.
Komarov tanked for a while before making the call for his tournament life. Reid showed K♠K♥ for top boat, while Komarov waved off with K♦3♥ for kings and tens.
Salvatore Russo raised to 40,000 from early position before Muhamet Perati three-bet to 140,000 in the small blind. Yossi Maymon cold-called in the big blind and Russo matched the raise as well, going to a flop of 10♥3♥5♠.
It was checked to Russo, who bet 205,000. Perati then jammed all in for 905,000, and Maymon made a quick fold. Russo called with the covering stack, however, and the cards went face-up.
Muhamet Perati: A♦5♦
Salvatore Russo: A♥8♥
Cheers erupted from the rail as the K♥ hit the turn, making Russo his flush and securing him the pot. The J♥ river brought him a useless bonus heart as Perati awaited his payout.
Russo was shipped the pot and ended up with a stack of nearly 150 big blinds.
