Milan Aloric opened to 60,000 from middle position, and received a call from Manig Loeser in the hijack.
On the 6♠4♠4♣ flop, Aloric check-called versus a bet of 40,000 from Loeser.
The same pattern followed on the K♣ turn, this time in respect of a bet of 115,000 from Loeser.
The 9♥ river was knuckled by both players, and Loeser's J♣J♠ was good versus Aloric's A♠Q♠.

Frederic Thiriet: A♠4♠
Pavel Sergheiciuc: A♦10♠
Thiriet was dominated and at risk, but the 7♦5♠3♠ flop gave him outs with both straight and flush draws. The J♦ turn wasn't one of them, but Thiriet hit the 2♥ on the river to make a wheel and earn the double up.

Villiel Kordonskiy opened to 60,000 in early position and Jose Gomez Casillas three-bet to a hefty 340,000 from the next seat. When the action got back to Kordonskiy, he took a moment before he shoved for 700,000 even, and Casillas snap-called.
Villiel Kordonskiy: A♥A♦
Jose Gomez Casillas : 10♠10♦
Kordonskiy had the goods and the three-bet of Casillas must have been music to his ears. There was still a runout to sweat, but no drama was seen on the 3♣8♠4♥9♦3♥ board, and Kordonskiy doubled up.

Andreas Loesche opened to 70,000 from the cutoff, and received calls from Bogdan Ilies and Miroslav Matula in the blinds.
Action was checked to Loesche on the 9♥9♣6♣ flop, who fired out a bet of 100,000.
Ilies responded with a check-jam to 540,000, and after a bit of thought, Loesche made the call.
Bogdan Ilies: 10♠9♠
Andreas Loesche: A♣Q♣
Ilies had two pair, nines and sixes, versus Loesche's flush draw.
The 3♣ hit on the turn to put Loesche in front, but it was followed by the 10♦ river to improve Ilies to a full house, much to his delight, who gave the table a whack in celebration and pumped his fist as he was shipped the double-up.
