Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

After a raise in the hijack to 1,200, and a call on the button by Alex Theologis, Dario Sammartino elected to three-bet to 6,000 from the big blind. The original raiser folded, but Theologis called again.

Sammartino continued with a bet of 7,500 on the 4♣7♥3♥ flop, to which Theologis responded by moving all in for roughly 26,000. Sammartino snap-called and the players revealed their cards.

Alex Theologis: A♣5♣ All in
Dario Sammartino: 10♣10♦

The turn 9♣ added a flush draw to Theologis' outs, but the river 7♦ was no help.

Foxen fired for 5,200 on the 4♠ river. Alioto did not take long to call, as they went to a showdown.

Foxen showed A♣Q♥ for top pair, but Alioto held a bigger pair as he revealed K♠K♣.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Nicolas Tytgat kicked the action off with a raise to 1,200 on the button. Pavels Spirins responded from the small blind with a raise to 3,600.

The action folded back to Tytgat, who took stock of his stack before moving all in for 23,500, receiving an immediate call from Spirins.

Nicolas Tytgat: 9♠9♥ All in
Pavels Spirins: A♠K♠

The Q♦2♦5♦ flop was clean for Tytgat, who remained ahead on the 3♣ turn too. However, the 4♠ river improved Spirins to a straight, signalling the end of the road for Tytgat.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Lirui Zhang raised to 1,500 from the cutoff and was called by Blas Torres in the big blind.

Torres checked the flop of 9♥A♥5♠, which led to a bet of 1,500 from Zhang. Torres was not done with the hand and called.

Zhang bet 5,500 on the Q♣ turn after Torres checked it to him. Torres called.

Both players checked the 6♥ river to go to a showdown.

Torres showed A♥4♦, which was good as Zhang mucked his hand to yield the pot.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Action was joined in a three-bet pot with roughly 20,500 in the middle. After a raise from Aleks Dimitrov in the hijack and a call from Conor Bergin on the button, Mitchell Hynam had put in a three-bet from the small blind, which both players called.

Hynam continued with a bet of 5,000 on the 2♥8♥J♠ flop, which saw Dimitrov fold but Bergin call.

When the dealer added the 5♣ turn to the board, Hynam bet once again, this time for 8,500. Again, Bergin called.

Hynam then fired a third and final bullet, putting Bergin all in for his remaining 12,500 on the J♦ river.

Bergin gave it some thought and decided to make the call. Hynam turned over A♥Q♦, for just ace-high, which was unable to beat the 8♠7♠ held by Bergin.

Conor Bergin	52,000 52,000	52,000
