Timo Kamphues: 
Nika Kakoishvili:

Boros Tanks and Wins
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Sharvan Chhabria shoved for just under 50,000 from early position. Nika Kakoishvili threw in 10,000 on the button as he didn't notice Chhabria's shove. The floor was called over and he ruled that the 10,000 would remain in the pot but that Kakoishvili had the option to fold or make the call. Kakoishvili opted to fold. Daniel Boros, in the small blind, tanked for a while and Timo Kamphues called the clock on him. The dealer refused to call the floor. After another minute or so, Boros also shoved and Kamphues snap-folded.
Sharvan Chhabria: 
Daniel Boros: 
"This is why you tanked so long?!" Chhabria exclaimed.
The board ran out 
for Chhabria to river a straight but Boros rivered the flush to eliminate Chhabria.

Closing in on the Bubble

: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
With 135 players left, the bubble is coming closer with each elimination as 123 players will be in the money. A min-cash in Day 1G is worth €802.
The eliminations have been coming fast but it is expected that it will slow down a bit soon.
Boyd Runs into Aces
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Dutch Boyd was gone from his table and Milad Oghabian had way more chips than ten minutes ago.
Boyd had raised to 9,000 from under the gun and was called by Marcin Chmielewski on the button. Oghabian three-bet to 36,000 from the big blind and only Boyd called with pocket queens. Oghabian held aces and held on to eliminate Boyd.

: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Marcin Chmielewski raised to 10,000 from mid-position and was called by Dutch Boyd in the cutoff and Branislav Ondrus in the small blind.
The flop came 
, Ondrus checked, Chmielewski continued with a bet of 15,000, and Boyd considered his options. He glanced at the board and his opponents' stacks and then decided to raise to 35,000. Ondrus quickly folded but Chmielewski hesitated for a few seconds before throwing his cards over the line.
