Konstantin Razinkov bet-folded the 10♦5♣4♠ turn for 20,000 out of the big blind when Ermanno Di Nicola raised the pot on the button.

Soon after that, Vadim Zakharyan let his initial shot clock run down to zero and took another ten seconds to act thereafter before he announced a pot-sized raise to 42,000. It folded to Razinkov on the button who moved all-in for 107,000 total to get snap-called by Zakharyan.

Konstantin Razinkov: K♠K♣5♣2♣ All in
Vadim Zakharyan: A♦A♣9♠9♦

The 8♦7♥4♦ flop left Razinkov in even worse shape as Zakharyan had the diamond draw to go with his superior pocket pair. It was all over on the Q♦ turn to make the A♥ river a formality and Razinkov was eliminated in 18th place for €11,200.

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Eran Carmi raised the pot to 42,000 from the hijack with Dario Alioto calling out of the cutoff, and Patrik Jaros calling on the button.

Three ways to the 6♠4♦2♣ flop, where Carmi tanked for a while before jamming for 143,000. Alioto and Jaros folded, which meant Carmi almost doubled up without having to see a turn.
