Santhosh Suvarna opened to 35,000 from under the gun and called when Marius Gierse three-bet to 100,000 from the hijack.
Suvarna check-called for 60,000 on the J♦6♣2♦ flop before the 3♦ turn checked through on the 7♥ river. Suvarna led out for 90,000, which pushed out Gierse.
On another table, Sean Perry was in the blender, and faced a decision for his tournament life.
With around 190,000 in the pot, on the 5♥5♦3♠2♦ board, Triple Crown winner Roberto Romanello used up a time bank before betting enough T-25,000 chips to put Perry at risk for his last 255,000.
After some time in the tank, Perry conceded the pot to the Welshman.

Kathy Lehne shoved all in for a little over 200,000 in the hijack and Oliver Weis called from the small blind. The two hands were tabled and they were off to the races.
Kathy Lehne: 7♥7♣
Oliver Weis: A♣Q♦
The flop of 10♠6♣3♦ favored Lehne with the pocket pair. The 8♦ on the turn was also safe but the Q♥ on the river gave Weis a pair of queens, eliminating Lehne from the tournament.

Level: 10
Blinds: 10,000/20,000
Ante: 20,000
Oliver Weis opened to 40,000 from the cutoff and Laszlo Bujtas called from the button. David Peters then three-bet to 140,000 from the small blind, with Weis being the only caller.
Weis check-called bets of 80,000 and 120,000 on the flop and turn for the board to read 10♠4♥2♥6♣3♣.
Weis checked for a third time, and Peters fired out 193,000, leaving one chip behind. The 2024 EPT Cyprus Main Event champion went deep into the tank, using a couple of time banks before make a one-chip call.
Peters tabled A♦A♠ and Weis frustratingly mucked his hand.
"Well played David," said Martin Kabrhel. "I put you on aces."
"David, can you do me a favour today please? Can you be quiet?" Kabrhel rounded out.

Jack Roser raised it up from the hijack and Joao Vieira three-bet on the button. Roser countered with a four-bet to 240,000 and Vieira just called. The flop came K♣J♣5♥ and Roser slid out a bet of 300,000. Vieira called and the 8♥ rolled off on the turn.
Roser checked this time and Vieira announced all in, putting Roser to the test for his remaining stack of just under 500,000. Roser thought for a few seconds but then decided to fold.
Roser asked Vieira if he would show and he obliged by flashing Q♣10♣ for a straight flush draw.

After arriving at the table, three players had all of their chips in the middle preflop and none of them had a pair. Philip Sternheimer was the short stack with around 190,000, Aliaksei Boika was next in line at risk for 572,000, and Orpen Kisacikoglu had both players covered.
Philip Sternheimer: A♠8♦
Aliaksei Boika: A♦Q♦
Orpen Kisacikoglu: K♣J♥
The flop came Q♥Q♣2♥ and Boika took a commanding lead with trip queens. The 9♠ on the turn gave Kisacikoglu a straight draw but the 3♣ bricked out on the river.

On the next deal, Gregory Jensen opened to 40,000 from the button and called when Kisacikoglu moved all in for 73,000.
Orpen Kisacikoglu: A♦3♠
Gregory Jensen: 10♥9♦
Kisacikoglu found an ace on the A♠10♦10♣ flop but was drawing to two outs as Jensen made trips. The K♥2♠ runout gave Jensen the winner for the bust out.
