On a board of 
we saw Alain Medesan in the small blind, and a player in early position, check to Vladimir Bozinovic on the button. Bozinovic, who played yesterday as well but busted, bet out 2,200. Medesan wasted no time calling, the third player involved folded.
The river came the 
and Medesan checked. Bozinovic tossed in a single black 5,000 chips and Medesan slammed his 
open on the table after just seconds of thinking. Medesan folded his big hand, Bozinovic mucked silently.

Vladimir Troyanovskiy opened under the gun plus one to 350 and he received four calls; a player in middle position, the button, and both blinds.
The flop came 
and the blinds checked to Troyanovskiy. The Russian player made a continuation bet of 1,000 and the first player folded. The player on the button raised it up to 2,725, prompting the blinds to fold. Troyanovskiy made the call.
The turn came the 
and Troyanovskiy check called a bet of 3,300.
The 
on the river made for four clubs on the board. Troyanovskiy checked and his opponent quickly checked behind.
Troyanovskiy tabled 
with a face not showing too much hope, but he turned a smile after his opponent mucked. The set was good, big pot for Troyanovskiy.

A whole bunch of players we recognize have signed up. Atanas Kavrakov won the WPT National in Cyprus two months ago for €75,000, and Norbert Szecsi finished sixth in this very WPT Vienna in 2012. Also in attendance is Austrian all time money leader Josef Klinger, Sofia Lövgren, and many more. We'll keep out eyes on these players for the rest of the day.

"If I five bet pre you call, huh?" asked Simeon Naydenov as we approached table 30. "I don't know" answered Wilfried Haselmayer from Austria two positions down. "Of course you don't know" said a steaming Naydenov, "Four bet eights, flop eight four four, of course!"
The board read 
and Naydenov had gotten it all in on the turn with 
up against 
. Naydenov clearly wasn't happy with what had happened, smashing his kings on the table so hard the dealer probably had to call for a new deck.
The turn all in was for 23,000, but Naydenov apparently had already won a big pot before that as he still had 15,000 left after the hand.
