The action was caught on a board of A♣Q♣10♣Q♥2♠ with roughly 15,000 in the pot. Gheorghe Butuc had checked out of the big blind and faced a pot-sized bet from Florian Surkamp on the button.
Butuc thought it over for a while before he reluctantly made the call. Surkamp tabled A♥A♠J♠4♠ for a full house, aces full of queens, and dragged in the pot.

Thomas Eychenne had gone all in preflop from the hijack for his final few chips. Alexi Skoulos and Jan-Peter Jachtmann looked him up, creating a side pot in the process.
The flop was then dealt 9♦8♣6♥. Skoulos checked from the cutoff to Jachtmann, who wanted to commit the rest of his 40,000 or so chips. Skoulos obliged with a call, and all cards were tabled.
Thomas Eychenne: Q♦10♥7♦2♠
Jan-Peter Jachtmann: A♥K♥10♠6♦
Alexi Skoulos: J♦10♣9♣7♣
Skoulos and Eychenne both flopped the nuts, but the 9♥ turn and 7♠ river gave Skoulos a runner-runner full house. He scored a double knock-out while becoming one of the biggest stacks in the room by doing so.

Filip Aleksic and [Removed:518] got all of their chips in the middle from late positions with Aleksic being the player at risk of elimination.
Filip Aleksic: A♣A♥Q♥8♥
[Removed:518]: Q♣Q♠5♣4♠
Aleksic would leave Rozomashvili with very few chips remaining if his aces could hold up. The runout of J♥7♣K♥5♥10♠ improved Aleksic to the nut flush and secured his double-up at the expense of Rozomashvili.
Rozomashvili was left with just 5,000 after the hand and was eliminated shortly after.

Cristian Bogdan and Vivian Saliba were battling over a pot of 10,000 chips when Bogdan bet 5,000 on the 8♠J♠2♦ flop. Saliba called to the 2♣ turn, which both players checked.
The J♣ river was also knuckled down, prompting Bogdan to show AxKxQx10x. Saliba tabled K♠K♦8♦6♠ for an overpair, which was good enough to rake in the pot and elevate her stack to more than four starting stacks.

Javier Francort: A♠A♣10♣6♥
Thomas Hueber: 9♣8♦8♥6♣
Hueber was ahead with a set of eights and stayed ahead on the 5♦ turn and 2♠ river, sending Francort to the rail.

When the action was caught on a turn of 10♥8♦7♠3♠, Simeon Tsonev, under the gun, was already all-in and called by Samuel Albeck in the hijack and Bernd Gleissner in the small blind.
The main pot amounted to roughly 30,000, while Gleissner and Albeck each put in 11,000 to a side pot on the turn. They then checked the 5♠ river, causing all three players to show their cards.
Tsonev could only show a pair of sevens with his K♦J♥7♣6♠, while Gleissner only fared a little better with A♥K♣10♣9♦ for a pair of tens.
Albeck had A♦A♣6♥2♠ and won the entire pot with his pocket aces, seeing him chip up to more than 100 big blinds.

In a pot of 5,500 chips, Ruslan Volkov bet 4,000 on a flop of 2♦Q♣9♣ from the big blind. Alon Huberman called in the cutoff before both players checked the 7♣ turn.
