Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Andrey Andreev was all-in with the 2♠2♥ and Eyal Revah looked him up in a "classic flip" with the A♠J♠.

The board ran out 8♣6♠5♦J♦8♥ and Evah almost jumped out of his chair in excitement, all the while he was receiving a massage. He then instantly apologised to Andreev, who quickly left the tournament area.

Jon Santos opened to 4,500 in middle position and the button and the small blind called before Adrian Mateos three-bet to 22,000 in the big blind. Only Santos called.

Mateos checked on the flop of 4♦8♣Q♣ and Santos checked back. Mateos checked again on the 3♦ turn and Santos took some time before betting 15,000 to bring a quick fold from Mateos.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Matthias Lipp raised to 4,000 and was called by Thai Ha in the small blind as well as Dong Chen in the big blind. They checked to the J♠10♣5♥4♠ turn on which Ha bet 6,000 and Chen called, as did Lipp.

They headed to the 2♠ river and Ha checked. Chen bet 20,000, Lipp folded and Ha came to the same conclusion.
