Picking up the action on a flop of Q♦10♣5♥, Ronald Keijzer and Alex Tchong were heads-up and quickly got all of their chips in the middle with Tchong at risk for 72,000.
Alex Tchong: K♠K♦Q♥8♦
Ronald Keijzer: 10♠10♥6♠6♣
Keijzer flopped a set of tens and had Tchong drawing slim with his pair of kings. However, the 3♦ and 9♦ runout gave Tchong a running flush to score a double up and survive.
Mathias Bayer limped in and called a raise to 20,000 by Nicolas Milgrom to then check the 6♠3♠2♦ on the flop. Milgrom continued for 20,000 to receive a check-call and Bayer then jammed the 8♥ turn for 76,000, Milgrom reluctantly folded.
The action started with the under-the-gun player limping in, encouraging Jorryt van Hoof to do the same from the hijack. Moonho Seo then raised to 30,000 from the cutoff, and only the two limpers called.
When checked to, Seo continued for 35,000 on the 4♥Q♣4♣ flop. Van Hoof was the only player to call, and they went to a turn.
Both players checked the 6♣ turn, and when the dealer turned the Q♠ river over, Van Hoof led out for 25,000.
Seo took a moment before raising to 125,000, and this put Van Hoof into the tank. After a minute or so, he made the call and was shown the good news.
Seo revealed his 10♠7♥6♠5♥, which was no good versus Van Hoof's flush-making 9♣9♦7♠5♣.
Andrew Smith limped in from the hijack which invited both of the blinds to come along. The flop came J♥J♦9♠ and Smith tossed in a bet of 10,000. The small blind folded but Stefan Lehner called from the big blind.
The 6♣ landed on the turn and both players checked to the K♦ on the river. Lehner led out with a small bet of 11,000 and Smith quickly looked him up. Lehner tabled AxJx5x3x but Smith flipped over Q♠10♠10♥5♥ for a straight to claim the pot.
Action folded to Bryn Kenney, who limped in before Kurtis Tinfow raised to 20,000. Igor Zektser, in the small, called the 20,000, which accounted for all of his remaining chips. Kenney made the call, too, and the three players went to a flop, with Zekster at risk.
Kenney check-folded to a bet of 30,000 on the K♠5♦10♣ flop, and the two remaining players revealed their cards.
Igor Zektser: 7♠6♦5♠3♥
Kurtis Tinfow: A♥K♣J♦8♦
Zekster was behind, but the turn 4♣ provided more outs, and when the river 3♠ improved him to a straight, the dealer pushed the triple up in his direction.
Stephen Chidwick raised to 18,000 in the hijack and was called by Bryn Kenney on the button and Igor Zektser in the big blind. The flop came Q♦6♥3♥ and Chidwick continued with a bet of 20,000. Kenney called and Zektser threw his cards away, leaving himself with just a few chips.
The turn was the 10♥ and Chidwick continued the story with a bet of 65,000. Kenney had enough and slung his cards into the muck, sending another pot to Chidwick.
Jonathan McGowan jammed his last 14,000 in from under the gun and five players made the call.
With McGowan all-in, the dealer spread out a flop of 5♦8♠9♣ and everyone checked to see the 10♣ hit the turn. After four checks, Funke bet 75,000 from the button. The rest of the players folded and the cards were flipped over.
Jonathan McGowan: A♦9♠5♥4♠
Jason Funke :Q♣Q♥J♥5♠
Funke turned the nut straight, and McGowan needed a nine or five on the river to improve to a boat. The 2♠ landed on the river, and McGowan was out.
Fernando Gutierrez raised to 18,000 in middle position and was called by Quan Zhou and Shaun Deeb in the blinds. The flop came Q♥4♣2♥ and the blinds checked to Gutierrez who continued with a bet of 21,000. Zhou called and Deeb got out of the way.
The turn was the J♠ and both players checked to the 3♣ on the river. Zhou led out with a bet of 78,000 and Gutierrez went into the tank for over a minute before letting his hand go.
