A raising war between Joachim Kleiven and David Hefner in a battle cutoff versus button ended with the Norwegian all in and at risk for 530,000. Hefner looked him up with the 
but failed to deal the final blow to the 
of Kleiven.
The board ran out 
and both players exchanged their roles of middle and bigger stack. "Easy come, easy go," grinned Hefner shortly after.
The action folded around to Fred Weiss in the small blind on the secondary table and he moved all in to put Sitbon at risk. The latter made the call for his last 327,000 with the 
and doubled through Weiss' 
on a board of 
.
On the feature table, David Abbas three-bet shoved out of the small blind into an open from Julien Bolimowski and got through with it. Abbas then opened the button for 65,000 and called the shove of Vyacheslav Igin with . Igin had the 
and they split on a spectacular board of 
.
It was a rather bad day at the office for Michael Lancri and he just open-shoved for what looked like 400,000 from the button. Karl Stark made the call out of the small blind and they tabled the cards:
Stark: 
Lancri: 
The Swede improved on the 
flop and hit two pair on the 
turn. Lancri was not drawing dead yet as any ace, six or ten would have secured the double up. Instead, it was the 
that appeared on the river and Stark let out a "sorry about that" with a very typical Scandinavian accent.
Level: 21
Blinds: 15,000/30,000
Ante: 4,000
Fred Weiss opened to 48,000 from the cutoff and called the three-bet to 151,000 by David Hefner in the big blind. On the 
flop, Hefner fired 85,000 and was called before the turn was the Swede worth a second barrel of 116,000. Again Weiss called and then faced a 250,000 bet on the 
river.
The start-of-the-day chip leader eventually mucked.
In the next hand, Pierre Antona moved all in for 332,000 from under the gun and collected the blinds and antes.
Zsombor Gall opened to 50,000 from under the gun and David Abbas three-bet to 132,000 out of the small blind before the action reached Jussi Heikela in the big blind. The Finn announced all in and enforced two folds.
One hand later, Philip Fjaestad moved all in for what looked like 185,000 and Heikela announced the call in the small blind.
Heikela:
Fjaestad:
The board ran out 
and the Swede headed to the payout desk in order to collect his €4,220.
Philip Fjaestad opened to 56,000 and Niels Vesterlund moved all in for 257,000 in total from one seat over. The Swede tanked for at least three minutes and then mucked the . Vesterlund showed him the 
and Fjaestad tapped the table with a "nice hand."
Picking up the action on the flop, Julien Bolimowski out of the blinds and initial raiser David Hefner checked. Bolimowski then check-raised the turn to 115,000 and received a rather quick call. The river was checked through and Hefner said he would have snap-called a bet as well.
Bolimowski was the first after the button and showed 
for a gutshot that didn't arrive, Hefner had the .
A couple of "raise and take it" hands saw blinds and antes being stolen and David Abbas has already done so twice on the feature table to increase his stack. Besides this, the action of the shorter stacks has been very careful thus far.
Over on the feature table, Niels Vesterlund open-shoved for his last 126,000 from under the gun and the action folded to Karl Stark in the small blind. He asked for a count and then isolated by reraising to 280,000. Philip Fjaestad folded and they turned them over:
Vesterlund:
Stark:
The board ran out 
and the Dane doubled.
