Faria Leaves Himself Short as He Times Out
Niveau 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
When the action was caught, the already completed board of 10♦A♦5♥K♣7♠ was dealt and laid in the middle of the table. Loads of chips were in the pot and they amounted to a total of roughly 150,000. Barak Wisbrod was in the big blind and had made a shove for 156,000. However, Luis Faria on the button had less than that, having only 75,000 behind.
Faria started the hand with five time bank extensions and he chose to use all of them for this decision. When the dealer had taken them all and his final countdown reached five seconds left, he finally mucked his hand, leaving himself with less than 20 big blinds.

Oya Wins the Battle of the Big Stacks
Niveau 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
A 60,000 pot was brewing between Masashi Oya and Roman Samoylov, who both played stacks of over 500,000. Oya added another 35,000 to the middle on the J♥8♥6♣3♥ board and Samoylov made the call.
On the J♦ river, Oya put out a massive bet of 120,000 chips. Samoylov had to get rid of one time bank chip in order to find the fold, but eventually he did so.

O'Dwyer Sends Loeser To The Rail
Niveau 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Steve O'Dwyer opened to 9,000 from under the gun and it folded to Dario Sammartino in the cutoff who made the call. Manig Loeser elected to move all in for 100,000 from the small blind and action was back on O'Dwyer who rejammed over the top to fold out Sammartino.
Manig Loeser: 9♣9♠
Steve O'Dwyer: 10♠10♦
Loeser was in need of help against the better pair for O'Dwyer, and when the board ran out 6♣5♣2♣6♦A♥, it was the tens that held up to send Loeser to the exit.

Schwartz Sucks Out, But Not For Long
Niveau 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Luke Schwartz had gotten short and got his last big blinds in from the cutoff. Yuan Li was in the small blind and went all in as well, for just over 100,000. Alexandros Kolonias folded his big blind and the pair's holdings were revealed.
Luke Schwartz: KxJx
Yuan Li: QxQx
Luke drilled a pair on the 9♠K♦8♥ flop to vault into the lead. The 2♦ turn was a big blank, but the Q♠ river changed the entire outcome of the hand.
Li shot up from his seat and cheered in excitement. His set would be the victor in this hand and he chipped up to a more comfortable 36 big blinds. Schwartz, meanwhile, would be the 46th place finisher in the €25,000 EPT High Roller.

Niveau 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Dominik Nitsche raised to 8,000 from under the gun before Mikita Badziakouski three-bet to 22,000 from late position. Nitsche responded with a shove but Badziakouski was not interested and he gave up the pot.
A few moments later, Isaac Haxton was all in for his last 70,500 and Adrian Mateos was the one to put him at risk. The rest of the table was out of the way and the cards were already on their backs.
Isaac Haxton: A♦K♦
Adrian Mateos: K♠8♣
The board ran out 6♦5♦A♠5♠8♦ and Haxton had an easy run to the double with a flush.

Niveau 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Quan Zhou opened the action from the hijack to 10,000 and only Nacho Barbero made the call next to act.
On the flop of 10♠10♥8♦, Zhou continued for 7,000 and Barbero came along to the J♥ turn. Zhou slowed down with a check and Barbero took a moment before tossing in a bet of 17,000. Zhou quickly folded and the pot was shipped to Barbero.
