Kai Cocklin

Level 24 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Patrick Bueno had made it 60,000 and Stefan Kostner had called on the button before Florian Surkamp made it 155,000 from the small blind. Nebojsa Musulin then cold-called from the big blind and Bueno made it 500,000. Kostner called off his stack of 250,000, and Surkamp shoved for 855,000. Musulin folded, and Bueno quickly called.

Stefan Kostner: J♠10♠10♦8♥ All in
Florian Surkamp: A♣A♦Q♠7♦ All in
Patrick Bueno: A♠A♥7♥3♣

Bueno had a chance to eliminate two players in a huge pot but would need some help as his seven-three to go with his aces didn't have any suits. Kostner was looking to almost quadruple up and did just that as the runout of Q♣J♥4♣9♣6♣ gave him a straight. Bueno and Surkamp chopped the side pot with pocket aces.

Player	Chips	Progress
Nebojsa Musulin	1,300,000
Stefan Kostner	950,000 580,000	580,000
Patrick Bueno	750,000 200,000	200,000

Florian Surkamp	600,000 250,000	250,000

Dwayne Sluis raised to 80,000 in the hijack and Hristiyan Banov called on the button. Tomasz Kozub then three-bet to 350,000 in the big blind, Sluis called for his last 185,000, and Banov got out of the way.

Dwayne Sluis: A♥K♣2♥2♠ All in
Tomasz Kozub: A♦A♠6♣4♥

Kozub was far in front with his aces as the board ran out 10♠Q♦Q♥7♥3♦, sending Sluis to the rail in 20th place.

Davide Slanzi: A♦Q♥J♥6♦ All in

David Salituro

Level 24 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Davide Slanzi and William Trumm were heads-up on a flop of Q♣7♦3♦ when Slanzi moved all in for 230,000 from the button and Trumm called in the cutoff.

Davide Slanzi: K♥K♦J♠9♥ All in
William Trumm: A♦Q♥8♥6♦

Slanzi was ahead with his kings but Trumm hit the A♠ on the turn to make two pair. The river, though, was the 10♣ and Slanzi made a straight to double up.

At another table, Patrick Bueno bet 90,000 from the button on a board of 8♣7♥5♠9♦ and Florian Surkamp called in the big blind.

The river was the J♣ and Surkamp bet 400,000, enough to put Bueno all in. Bueno tanked for several minutes before folding as Surkamp took the pot.

David Salituro

Level 24 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Tomasz Kozub raised to 70,000 in the hijack and Hristiyan Banov called in the small blind. Krzysztof Palasz then three-bet to 280,000, Kozub potted, and Banov folded. Palasz, though, called for around 150,000 more.

Krzysztof Palasz: Q♣Q♥8♣5♥ All in
Tomasz Kozub: A♣J♣8♦7♦

"Fair fight," Kozub said once the cards were revealed. The flop came A♥A♠10♣ and Kozub took the lead with trip aces. "I like it," he added.

The rest of the board came 2♠K♥. "GG," Palasz told the table on his way to the exit as Kozub got up to shake his hand before taking in the pot.

Ivan Nikolov opened to 60,000 and got called by Patrick Bueno before Florian Surkamp made it 275,000. Damjan Radanov went to call the 60,000 but didn't see the three-bet of Surkamp, then elected to fold and forfeit the chips he put in the pot. Nikolov folded, and Bueno called off his stack of exactly 260,000.

Patrick Bueno: J♥10♠9♥9♦ All in
Florian Surkamp: A♣J♦10♦9♣

Elad Shaar: A♦10♦5♠3♠ All in
