Level 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
The players have been sent on their first 15-minute break of the day.
Level 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
The rest of the field had already cleared the room during the break while Boris Kuzmanovic and Rene Majed continued to tangle in a pot.
With around 60,000 in the pot on a board of J♥2♥9♥4♦7♦, Kuzmanovic moved all in from the button, sending Majed deep into the tank. Several minutes went by before he called for 152,000 in the big blind.
"Flush," Kuzmanovic said, turning over 8♥7♥. Majed sent 10♥10♣ into the muck as he made his exit, while Kuzmanovic raked in the big pot that extended more than 10 minutes into the break.

Level 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Around 30,000 was in the middle as Eusebiu Jalba and Fausto Tantillo went to the turn on a board of 2♠7♥5♣6♦. Jalba then bet 16,700 from the button before Tantillo moved all in for 107,000 in the small blind.
Jalba tanked for several minutes until the clock was called. He ended up calling to put Tantillo at risk and turned over 9♠7♠ for top pair, while Tantillo had A♣Q♣ for just ace-high.
Jalba was poised for the knockout going to the river, but Tantillo spiked the A♠ as Jalba slammed the table in frustration before handing over most of his chips.

Level 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Big fold alert!
Lorenzo Arduini opened under the gun and Marco Di Persio three-bet the cutoff to 8,500. When it got back to Arduini, he four-bet to 25,500. A min-click then came in from Di Persio as he five-bet to 42,500, then Arduini six-bet to 77,500.
Di Persio was thinking out loud in his native language, but did slip in something in English when he asked "will you show if I fold?"
Arduini was trying not to laugh and held it together pretty well while Di Persio was still talking. Eventually, Di Persio folded K♠K♣ face up to the table, and Arduini didn't give him the satisfaction of knowing if he made the right laydown as he quickly mucked his cards as he dragged the pot.

Level 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
On the turn of a board showing 9♠10♦Q♦5♣, Claudio Cecchi jammed from the big blind and Lukas Pazma snap-called from under the gun.
Claudio Cecchi: A♣A♠ 
Lukas Pazma: 10♥10♣
Cecchi held pocket aces, but Pazma's flopped set of tens had Cecchi needing to hit a two-outer on the river to survive.
Cecchi was already out of his seat as the 9♣ completed the board, upgrading Pazma to a boat. Cecchi headed for the exit and Pazma's stack increased to over 400,000.

A pot of 14,400 had developed by the turn, on a board of A♠K♣10♠7♠, in a hand between Sebastian Kotowicz in the hijack and Fausto Tantillo in the small blind.
Tantillo checked, and Kotowicz slid out a bet of 9,000. Tantillo responded with a check-raise to 24,000, and Kotowicz went into the tank.
After giving the spot a good two minutes of thought, Kotowicz elected to send his cards to the muck.
