Sergei Gurin opened to 10,000 in middle position, and Jonathan Little defended his big blind to see the 8♥K♥10♥ flop.
Little led out for 30,000, and Gurin made the call. Little then checked the J♠ turn, where Gurin counted out a bet of 80,000. Little called, and the 9♥ river hit the felt.
Another check from Little was met with a bet of 235,000 from Gurin. Little quickly tossed his cards to the dealer, and Gurin raked in the pot.
Romain Morvan opened to 10,000 in the hijack, and Alex Livingston three-bet to 30,000 in the cutoff. Morvan four-bet to 100,000, and Livingston called.
Morvan bet 105,000 on the flop of 5♣3♥5♦, and Livingston called. Morvan bet again on the 3♠ turn, and Livingston called.
Morvan unloaded the clip by moving all in on the 7♥ river, and Livingston quickly called. Morvan showed QxQx, but he couldn't compete with the two-time bracelet winner's A♣A♥ and was sent to the rail.
Dmitry Lukyanov opened to 8,000 in the cutoff, and Thomas Taylor called on the button. Bogdan Jontulovic came along in the big blind, checking on the 6♥10♣9♠ flop.
Lukyanov checked to Taylor, who fired a bet of 12,000. Jontulovic folded, while Lukyanov made the call. Both players then checked through the J♣ turn.
Lukyanov led out for 35,000 on the 9♦ river, and Taylor took a moment before raising to 105,000.
After using a time bank card, Lukyanov made the call. Taylor turned over A♦9♥ for trip nines, but Lukyanov showed 6♠6♦ for a full house to claim the pot.
