With two levels having been completed, the 18 remaining players are now on their first 20-minute break of the day.
Alexandre Vuilleumier opened to 20,000 from the hijack and received calls from Mikalai Vaskaboinikau in the small blind and Gregoire Auzoux in the big blind.
The flop came 10♦9♥8♥. Vaskaboinikau checked, Auzoux bet 28,000, Vuilleumier raised to 80,000, Vaskaboinikau folded, Auzoux raised to 180,000 and Vuilleumier moved all in. Auzoux quickly made the call with a covering stack.
Alexandre Vuilleumier: Q♣J♠
Gregoire Auzoux: Q♥6♥
Vuilleumier had flopped the nuts but was suddenly drawing dead when the 4♥ turn gave Auzoux a flush. The J♣ river was a formality and Vuilleumier was sent to the rail in brutal fashion while Auzoux collected a sizable pot.
Sam Greenwood raised to 18,000 from middle position and the action folded to Mikita Badziakouski, who made the call with a relatively short stack.
The flop of 5♠A♠3♥ saw Badziakouski check to Greenwood, who put out a bet of 24,000. Badziakouski then called and the 7♠ turn was put on the felt.
Badziakouski thought for a while before leading with a tiny bet of 10,000, but it was enough to win him the pot when Greenwood immidiately folded.
Leon Sturm opened to 17,000 from under the gun and Francisco Benitez moved all in for 72,000 from the cutoff. Mikalai Vaskaboinikau called from the small blind and Sturm g ot out of the way leaving Benitez all in and at risk against Vaskaboinikau.
Francisco Benitez: K♥Q♣
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: A♠A♦
The board ran out 10♠10♦2♥5♠3♦. Benitez was drawing dead by the turn and made his exit as Vaskaboinikau continued to accumulate chips.
After an unseen raise from another player at the table, Ognyan Dimov called from the cutoff. Vicente Delgado then made a big three-bet to 138,000 from the big blind and the action folded back to Dimov, who made the call.
The flop of J♠J♦10♣ saw Delgado bet another 125,000 in the pot, receiving a call from Dimov yet again. On the 9♦ turn, Delgado upped the ante to 250,000 and Dimov obliged with another call after tanking for a bit.
The 6♦ river then completed the board and the players checked in quick succession. Delgado showed Q♦Q♣ for two pair and Dimov swiftly sent his cards towards the muck, shipping the huge pot Delgado's way.
Biao Ding moved all in for his last 36,000 from middle position and was called by Mikalai Vaskaboinikau in the big blind who covered.
Biao Ding: 7♦7♥
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: A♦10♠
Ding failed to connect with the board on the J♠J♦4♣J♥9♦ runout and made his exit from the tournament area while Vaskaboinikau scooped the pot.
Artur Martirosian was all in from the hijack for his last 120,000 and called by Vicente Delgado who covered.
Artur Martirosian: K♣10♣
Vicente Delgado: Q♦Q♥
Delgado was well ahead with pocket-queens but the 5♣7♣6♥ flop gave Martirosian several additional outs in the form of a flush draw. The 8♦ turn gave him additional outs to a straight but the 7♠ river was a brick and Martirosian was sent to the rail while Delgado collected another sizable pot.
