Amit [Removed:550] limped in from under the gun and Dimitar Danchev raised to 1,100 in the cutoff. Lei Yu called on the button and Alexandros Kolonias three-bet to 4,800 out of the big blind. [Removed:550], Danchev, and Yu all called to see the flop of 10♥7♠3♣.

The action checked through to the 6♥ on the turn and the 4♦ on the river. [Removed:550] was the first to take a stab at the pot on the river with a bet of 10,000.

On a table that was only playing four-handed at the time, Benoit Fiasson and Alex Lynskey were heads-up in a raised pot with nearly 20,000 in the middle already. The board read K♠J♣6♥7♦ and Lynskey check-called a bet of 11,000 from Fiasson who was on the button.

The river was the 9♦ and Lynskey checked again. Fiasson tanked for nearly two minutes before shoving all in. Lynskey met him with a snap-call and Fiasson tabled A♥A♣. Lynskey also revealed A♠A♦ and the two players smirked as they chopped the pot.

On the very first hand, Fabian Gumz and Tsubasa Kamei were battling heads-up in the blinds. The board read 8♥5♣2♠J♥ and Gumz led out with a bet of 10,000 into a pot of around nearly that much. Kamei called from the big blind and the 9♦ completed the board.

Gumz slid his entire stack of around 35,000 into the middle and Kamei sank into his chair. After deliberating for a couple of minutes, Kamei also put his stack in the middle to call. Gumz flipped over Q♥7♦ for complete air while Kamei showed 10♥10♦ as the lone pair to scoop the pot.

"As good of a start as you can get," another tablemate said.
