The action folded to Serkan Kuru in the cutoff, who open-jammed for 560,000 chips. Ion Tabacaru called from the small blind with the covering stack and the cards were tabled.
Serkan Kuru: A♦4♠
Ion Tabacaru: A♥J♦
Kuru paired his four on the 4♣3♦8♠ flop, and Tabacaru did not hit a jack on the 2♦Q♦ runout, resulting in a double-up for Kuru.
Lachezar Petkov raised to 130,000 as the first to act and Ruslan Volkov flat-called from the hijack. Alf Martinsson then also came along from the button and Serkan Kuru defended his big blind to send four players to a flop of 4♠9♠8♦.
The action checked to Martinsson, who bet 200,000 chips. Only Petkov called, while Kuru and Volkov got out of the way. The J♣ turn then checked through before the 4♦ river completed the board.
Petkov now took the initiative with a bet of 365,000. Martinsson pondered his options for a while before ultimately deciding to fold, shipping the pot to Petkov.
Kasparas Klezys opened to 125,000 from the button, and Lachezar Petkov defended his big blind.
Petkov check-called for 175,000 on the 9♥8♠2♣ flop and then led out for 130,000 on the 8♥ turn. Klezys called.
Petkov then check-folded to a bet of 625,000 on the 10♠ river.
Andrea Radicchi raised to 120,000 in middle position and Vito Vella called on the button. Armin Rezaei then moved all in for 755,000 in the big blind and Radicchi folded. Vella, though, quickly called to put Rezaei at risk.
Armin Rezaei: K♠Q♥
Vito Vella: A♥J♥
Rezaei was looking for help as the flop came 9♣9♠2♠. The 10♦ turn gave him a straight draw, but he missed the 8♣ river and Rezaei followed up his final-table run from last year with a 22nd-place finish in this year's tournament.
Max Neugebauer raised to 130,000 on the button and Kasparas Klezys defended his big blind.
The flop came 4♦A♠9♠ and Neugebauer continued for 120,000. Klezys called to the 3♥ turn.
Neugebauer then bet another 400,000 and Klezys again called. The river was the 2♣ and Klezys led out for 350,000.
Neugebauer spent several minutes in the tank before calling. Klezys then turned over A♥2♦ for two pair and Neugebauer mucked.
Borys Rozhanovskyi moved all in for last 310,000 before Andrea Radicchi reshoved as the big stack from the cutoff. The button and blinds folded.
Borys Rozhanovskyi: A♣8♥
Andrea Radicchi: J♦J♠
Radicchi became the even bigger favorite after making a set on the J♥8♣6♣ flop. The 3♦ turn gave him the check mark and the 6♠ river marked the end of Rozhanovskyi's Main Event run.
Dario Sammartino opened to 125,000 from the hijack with K♥J♥. Michele Tocci snap-folded his A♠J♠ from the cutoff. Giuseppe Mazza-Boussemart called from the big blind with K♣Q♣.
Mazza-Boussemart paired up on the Q♠8♠5♦ flop to remain ahead. Sammartino continued for 185,000. His opponent raised and Sammartino quickly folded.
Michael Rocco opened to 120,000 from early position. Andrej Cintula called from the small blind.
Cintula check-called for 90,000 on the flop before action checked through to showdown.
Cintula's A♣J♥ was best on the A♥10♦5♠6♣3♥ board
Andrej Desset raised to 150,000 from under the gun and Borys Rozhanovskyi was the only other party interested, as he made the call from the button.
Desset then fired 110,000 chips on the A♠9♥5♦ flop and Rozhanovskyi called. Desset sized up to 265,000 on the 3♠ turn, but Rozhanovskyi still stuck around with a call.
Desset completed his triple barrel on the 3♦ river and put Rozhanovskyi all-in for his last 310,000 chips.
Rozhanovskyi counted his chips, gave his cards one last look, and added them to the muck as he forfeited the pot to Desset.
The remaining 23 players have retaken their seats and action has resumed.
There are 62 minutes left in Level 24 with blinds of 30,000-60,000 and a 60,000 big blind ante.
