It is rare to see all eight players at the table in a pot. This is, even more, the case on Day 2.
This is exactly what happened and it all began when Daragh Davey opened to 4,500 from under the gun. Everyone at the table called including Jussi Mattila, Mathias Siljander, Jari Hurri, and Johan Palokangas in the big blind.
"Family pot!" yelled Siljander before a few others players chimed in saying the same before the 
came on the flop.
The action folded to Mattila in middle position who opted to bet 12,000. It folded back around to Palokangas who jammed for 36,400. Matilla snap-called and turned over 
and needed help to beat the two pair held by Palokangas with 
.
Palokangas doubled up after the 
came on the turn and the 
came on the river.
"Have fun writing that one up," Davey said as PokerNews was walking away from the table.

came on the turn followed by the on the river.

Igor Pihela Sr. just won another pot. It began with Tomas Sujeta opening to 5,000 from middle position. The player in the small blind called before Pihela Sr. three-bet to 17,400. Sujeta called and the player in the small blind folded.
Pihela Sr. bet 10,000 after the 
came on the flop and Sujeta called. Another bet of 10,000 came from Pihela Sr. after the 
came on the turn followed by another called.
The same pattern emerged after the came on the river with Pihela Sr. leading out for 10,000 once again. Sujeta shook his head and made the call.
Pihela Sr. turned over , which apparently was good enough as Sujeta folded before he said: "You win again."
Meanwhile, Mathias Siljander keeps chipping up as well and his stack increased to 440,000 at the same time this hand took place.
