On the 5♣4♦8♠ flop, Calea check-called a 1,600 bet from Huber. The 4♣ turn came about and this time Calea opted for a check-raise to 14,400 after a 4,000 bet from Huber. Huber made the call and the 3♠ river appeared.

Segebrecht Eliminates Former Chip Leader Marques
Level 8
: 700/1,400, 175 ante
Claas ''SsicK_OnE'' Segebrecht raised his button to 2,800 and Andre ''PTFisherman23'' Marques, who was the chip leader during the second break of the day, made a three-bet to 12,000 from the small blind. Segebrecht made the call and the two regulars saw the Q♦6♣9♦ being fanned out.
Marques continued for 8,712 on that flop, and Segebrecht called once more. The 10♠ turn saw the same action, however for a sizing of 21,912 chips.
On the 9♥ river, Marques decided to go all-in for the remainder of his 50,026 stack. Segebrecht snap called, and saw that he won the 150 big blind pot when Marques could show nothing but ace-high with A♦J♠. Segebrecht played two pair with Q♠10♥ and scooped a huge pot.

Lococo Times Out in Big River Decision
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 150 ante
''zarkou'' raised to 2,520 from under the gun and received calls from ''teixeirapokr'' in middle position, ''Perfect1232'' in the cutoff, and Alejandro ''[Papo]AR'' Lococo in the big blind.
The flop fell Q♣10♦2♥ and the action checked to ''Perfect1232'', who put forth a bet of 3,802. ''teixeirapokr'' was the only one to fold as the other two competitors called.
On the 4♣ turn, ''Perfect1232'' bet another 8,400 after both players checked to him again. Lococo made the call before ''zarkou'' went all-in for his remaining 24,051 chips. Both ''Perfect1232'' and Lococo called and the K♥ river completed the board.
Lococo checked for a third time, and ''Perfect1232'' followed ''zarkou''s example and shoved his 43,520 in the middle, worth around half the pot.
Lococo used his entire timebank until it hit zero seconds, forcing him to fold. ''zarkou'' showed Q♥Q♠ for a set of queens, and tripled up as ''Perfect1232'' held 2♣2♦ for a lower set.
