Vitaliy Kryza: J♠8♥6♠3♦

Heredia was ahead with his top pair and improved on both remaining streets, as the Q♠ turn and K♣ river gave him broadway.

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Tobias Peters raised the pot in the first hand and claimed the blinds. Sascha Wilhelm then lost a single-raised pot to Filippo Ragone on the K♥9♣3♦ flop when Ragone bet 150,000.

Wilhelm then raised to 160,000 and Pablo Heredia defended the big blind. "You have seven fifty behind?" Wilhelm asked and Heredia put his large chip denominations out in front. On the Q♣J♣9♥ flop, Ragone checked and Wilhelm bet 125,000. The check-raise pot by Heredia followed and Wilhelm instantly folded.
