Leon Tsoukernik opened to 250,000 from the cutoff and then four-bet jammed for around 1,400,000 after Sirzat Hissou made it 900,000 from the button. The chip leader quickly called.
Leon Tsoukernik: 4♣4♥
Sirzat Hissou: 10♠10♣
Tsoukernik needed to find a "miracle four," but it never arrived as the K♠J♥6♣5♦7♣ runout confirmed his exit.
Action folded around to Alex Foxen who opened to 100,000 from the button. Sirzat Hissou defended the big blind.
Hissou check-raised an 80,000 bet to 300,000 on the flop of 5♠4♥2♠. Foxen then four-bet all in for around 770,000. Hissou took a moment before releasing his hand.
Alex Foxen opened from the button to 120,000. Daniel Dvoress defended the big blind.
Foxen check-called a 60,000 bet from Dvoress on A♣4♣8♠. He check-called again on the 7♠ turn, this time a wager of 180,000. Foxen checked once more on the J♠ river before Dvoress announced all in.
Foxen used a time bank and stared his opponent down before making the fold.
Fahredin Mustafov jammed as the big stack from the small blind and Alex Foxen put in his last few big blinds from the big blind.
Alex Foxen: J♣2♠
Fahredin Mustafov: A♦8♠
Mustafov made two pair on the A♠K♦K♠ flop to leave Foxen needing running cards. The 2♣ turn was one of those but the 8♦ river confirmed his exit instead.
Orpen Kisacikoglu put in his sub 10 big blind stack from the cutoff before Roman Hrabec reshoved from the small blind. Daniel Dvoress folded in the big blind and the cards were tabled.
Orpen Kisacikoglu: A♦6♠
Roman Hrabec: A♣Q♠
Kisacikoglu could not overturn his domination and excited after the 10♣3♥2♣A♠5♦ runout.
Sirzat Hissou opened to 200,000 from the hijack. Kristen Foxen and Fahredin Mustafov called from the blinds.
Foxen checked the 10♠7♠6♥ flop, and Mustafov led out for 200,000. Hissou called before Foxen made it 700,000. Mustafov jammed for 1,315,000, which folded out Hissou. Foxen quickly called.
Fahredin Mustafov: 7♦6♦
Kristen Foxen: A♠6♠
Mustafov had two pair but needed to dodge Foxen's ace and flush outs.
The 2♥ turn was a brick and the 6♣ kept Mustafov in contention.
