Four players saw a flop following a raise to 6,500, a call from the button and the blinds. Everyone checked it down to the river. No one wanted the 
board. Jacouse Torbey was to the left of the button so had to show first. He turned over 
and each of the other players nodded and folded in turn. Torbey threw up his hands at the victory. “It’s a miracle, look what I’ve won.” He was a happy man.
Jacouse Torbey opened to 7,000 from the cutoff before Maximilian Droege made it 18,000 on the button.
Torbey, "You've got it again, huh?"
"Oh, I'm better this time," replied the talkative Canadian.
"Will you show?" asked Torbey.
"You show me and I'll show you," answered Droege.
Torbey was seemingly content with this and folded 
face up, Droege flashed 
to the table.
Elias Abou Saleh opened to 7,000 preflop before Sergey Rybachenko made it 15,500 in the seat next to him. Saleh then four-bet to 31,000 and Rybachenko opted to flat-call to see the 
flop. Saleh immediately moved all in for 55,500 and the Russian tanked for about four minutes before he finally decided to fold.
Max Droege was the only caller in the big blind as Boris Yanpolskiy opened under the gun. They saw a flop of 
Droege led for 15,000 and Yanpolskiy called. They both checked the turn of 
and the river 
. It was on Deroege to show his cards first as he was sat to the left of the button but he chose to muck. There was a brief discussion on whether either of them had to show and it was clarified the pot was Yanpolskiy’s whether he showed or not. He showed the anyway.
On a 
, Elias Abou Saleh bet 33,000 with about 100,000 remaining only for Natalya Nikitina to check-raise all in. Saleh snap-called like a rattlesnake after its prey.
Saleh: 
Nikitina: 
The gave Nikitina a couple more outs and the 
river duly delivered. A disgusted Saleh ripped off his headphones and went straight for the exit.

Jacoues Torbey and Boris Yanpolskiy already had chips in the pot when Andrey Kazankov moved all in for 52,500. Torbey thougth for a long time before folding. Yanpolskiy asked “How much?” before making the call and tabling 
against Kazankov’s 
. “Bad mistake” said Torbey. “I folded that.” The cards came out 
and Kazankov more than doubled up.
What a last ten minutes for Natalya Nikitina! On the turn of a 
board, all the chips went in against Samy Zakhary.
Nikitina:
Zakhary: 
The river changed nothing and a brutal cooler shifted even more chips across to the Russian lady.
What a crazy day this has been.

Rushing over to table 1, we found Koray Aldemir glumly leaving as Asaf Avci was raking in another big pot with on a 
board. Manig Loeser told us that Aldemir had been holding 
and that Avci had "check-called the flop before open shoving the turn for like ten times the pot...It was pretty sick."
Aldemir no doubt shares those sentiments.
