After an open by the player on the button, Jaromir Hanel shoved for a little bit more than 30,000 from the small blind. Linus Hjulstroem called in the big blind, and the initial raiser folded.
Jaromir Hanel: Q♥J♣
Linus Hjulstroem: A♦Q♠
Hanel packed his stuff and almost didn't wait for the dealer to reveal the board of 5♥2♦A♥9♠6♠ to leave.
Daniel Koloszar opened to 5,000 from middle position and was called by Matija Kajtez on the button.
Koloszar check-called a 5,000 bet from Kajtez on the J♣Q♥4♦ flop and then both players checked down on the J♦ turn and 10♣ river.
Koloszar tabled K♣10♠ for tens and jacks and Kajtez mucked. Koloszar, who was the Day 1b chip leader, currently sits with around 370,000.
Three-handed on a flop of 10♠9♣2♠, Eugenio Bastos bet 7,000 from the small blind and Alin Grasu called in the big blind. Padraig O'Neill then raised to 25,000 in early position and only Bastos called.
Both players checked the 9♥ turn and Bastos also checked the 5♣ river. O'Neill then bet 70,000.
Bastos tanked for several minutes until the clock was called. He eventually called and O'Neill turned over J♦J♥ to win the pot.
Diogo Veiga had already opened from middle position and Rui Milhomens shoved for approximately 30,000 on the button. Action folded back to Viega, who called to put Soares at risk.
Rui Milhomens: 10♣10♦
Diogo Veiga: A♠K♣
It was a race, but the Q♣K♠7♠5♥8♣ runout paired Veiga's king to eliminate Milhomens.
Karel Havelka opened the cutoff to 4,500 and action folded to Patrick Berger in the small blind.
After assessing his stack, Berger opted to shove all in for 46,500.
Havelka tanked for a minute whilst he contemplated the call. He elected to muck his hand and let Berger take down the pot.
Dejan Jakovljevic opened the cutoff to 5,500 and Nils Pudel called on the button. Both blinds folded and it was heads up to a flop.
The board of 9♥K♣7♥ was checked around which led to the 5♥ appearing on the turn.
Jakovljevic led for 6,500 and Pudel called.
The river K♥ paired the board and Jakovljevic opted to check to the button.
Pudel fired for 15,000 leaving Jakovljevic in a tough spot.
After a minute in the tank, he tossed in calling chips, and Pudel showed J♥J♣ for a flush.
Jakovljevic mucked and tapped the table, leaving Pudel the pot.
Andreas Scheelen opened to 4,000 from middle position and found one caller in Christos Argyriadis in the big blind.
Argyriadis check-called a 3,000 bet from Scheelen on the J♦Q♥10♠ flop and then both players checked on the 7♣ turn.
The 6♦ completed the board and Argyriadis checked again. Scheelen bet 10,000 and Argyriadis check-raised all in. Scheelen quickly folded and Argyriadis added to his stack.
With around 50,000 in the middle in a blind versus blind battle, Andreas Werner bet 15,500 on the 9♦4♠8♠ flop and Eugenio Sanchioni called.
The turn was the 8♦ and Werner bet another 26,000. Sanchioni again called and the 10♦ fell on the river.
Sanchioni checked, and this time Werner checked back as Sanchioni turned over J♣10♣ for a rivered two pair.
"Wow," Werner said, shaking his head and throwing his cards into the muck as the K♣ was exposed. "You didn't think I had anything," he asked Sanchioni.
