Dusan Despotovic raised to 250,000 from the cutoff with A♦K♦Q♥9♠ and Javier Francort three-bet A♠A♥Q♦8♥ from the big blind to 790,000. Despotovic quickly called.
They saw a flop of 7♦6♠6♥ and Francort bet 440,000, which was enough to win the pot as Despotovic folded.
Dusan Despotovic completed from the small blind and Quirin Zech checked his option out of the big blind.
Two checks followed the 10♥7♣J♣ flop to see the A♠ appear on the turn. Despotovic bet 100,000 and Zech quickly called.
Both players were happy to check the K♣ river, and Despotovic revealed A♦8♦8♣5♣ for a flush. Zech mucked Q♣9♦7♥5♠ for a straight, and the pot went over to Despotovic.
Javier Francort raised to 200,000 from middle position with A♠K♦J♣10♦ and Tamazi Skhirtladze called with Q♣J♥10♠9♠ in the hijack. Dusan Despotovic was in the big blind with Q♦8♠4♠2♦.
The flop brought some action as on the K♥J♦5♣ board, it checked to Skhirtladze, who potted it to 720,000. Despotovic folded, Francort raised, and Skhirtladze called the last few chips he had.
Francort had top two and needed to fade the wrap of Skhirtladze. A 9♦ did drop on the turn to give Skhirtladze a straight, but his job wasn't done as that same card gave Francort a flush draw. However, the 10♥ river was a brick, and Skhirtladze doubled up.
Dusan Despotovic raised to 280,000 from under the gun and Volodymyr Kokoulin called for his stack of 120,000 out of the hijack. Antoine Delorme called from the big blind and they went to the flop with Kokoulin all-in.
A flop of 9♠K♥2♦ revealed itself and both players checked to see the 10♥ hit the turn. Two more checks followed for the 8♥ to complete the board. After two more checks, all three players showed their cards.
Despotovic tabled aces with A♦A♣Q♠Q♥, which was second best to Delorme's J♥8♣6♣5♥ for a rivered flush. Kokoulin flipped up A♠K♦10♠6♠ for a flopped two pair, meaning he was the first elimination at the final table.
Tamazi Skhirtladze limped the button with K♥J♠8♠2♥ and Marek Uharcek completed the small blind with A♥7♥7♣4♥. Konstantin Razinkov was in the big blind and checked A♠8♦6♦6♣.
The flop came J♦8♣9♠ and all three checked to the 3♥ turn. It checked to Skhirtladze, who bet 320,000 with his jacks and eights. Both of his opponents folded.
Teker had a great chance to double up with his aces, and the 9♥2♣3♦ flop put him in an even better spot to do so. A 10♣ did give Kokoulin some hope, but the 2♠ river meant Teker doubled up with trip deuces.
From the cutoff, Dusan Despotovic raised to 140,000 with Eray Teker calling from the small blind and Javier Francort defending his big blind.
Teker checked the 6♦2♠Q♣ flop and Francort bet 200,000. Despotovic called but Teker folded A♥K♦Q♥8♣ for top pair top kicker.
Francort and Despotovic checked down the 8♥ turn and 3♥ river. Francort showed a pair of eights holding 8♠7♦5♠5♦ to win the pot, as Despotovic mucked A♦9♦5♣2♣.
Volodymyr Kokoulin started with a limp from early position holding A♠A♣8♥4♥ before Konstantin Razinkov raised the pot to 270,000 out of the hijack with A♥10♠9♥3♥.
When it got back to Kokoulin, he four-bet to 800,000, which caused Razinkov to quickly fold.
