Matthew Micallef opened to 6,000 from under the gun and was called by Riccardo Trevisani to his left and Evangelos Charalampous in the hijack.
Micallef checked a flop of 3♣8♦4♠, allowing Trevisani to bet 10,500. Charalampous called while Micallef folded.
After the 8♣ turn as checked by both Trevisani and Charalampous, Charalampous bet 29,000 on the 3♠. Charalampous looked at his cards and folded.
Grzegorz Kozieja opened from the cutoff, Alberto Riccardo Galluzzo on the button three-bet all-in for 48,000 and Kozieja called.
Alberto Riccardo Galluzzo: A♥K♥ 
Grzegorz Kozieja: 7♣7♥
Galluzzo failed to improve on a board of 3♦5♠Q♣4♥5♦ and was eliminated.
On a board of 2♦2♥J♣7♠8♦ with 75,000 in the pot, Thomas Rayssiguier in the small blind moved all-in for roughly 65,000.
Giuseppe Grupposo in the big blind went deep into the tank. He eventually called off his last 58,000 but ran into Rayssiguier's Q♦Q♥.
Grupposo mucked his cards but the dealer flipped them over to reveal Q♣9♥ for queen-high. His opponents looked pretty surprised as Grupposo was leaving the table.
