Adriano Scagnetti opened to 2,500 on the button and Victoria Livschitz shoved for approximately 26,000 from the big blind. Scagnetti asked for a count and made the call after a bit of thought.
Victoria Livschitz: K♣10♣
Adriano Scagnetti: 9♦9♥
The K♠Q♣8♥A♦Q♠ runout left Livschitz best with kings-up and she doubled her stack.
Action was on the flop on a board of 8♣10♦J♣ and it was checked to Anton Markov, who bet 3,500. Francesco Macri called in the small blind, then Hector Miguel Henkel Aguirre check-raised to to 15,000.
Markov moved all in for 44,900, Macri folded, and Aguirre pushed his chips in the middle to make the call. Markov had J♠J♦ for a set of jacks and Aguirre had A♠9♥ for ace high with an open-ended straight draw.
The turn came the Q♥, which completed Aguirre's straight. The river was the 5♠ and Aguirre held to win the pot, cracking Markov's set and sending him to the rail.
George Meitanies started things off strong from early position, raising to 2,500. Grzegorz Kozieja, sitting in the big blind, decided to call.
The flop came down 10♦3♣8♦, and both players checked it through.
When the 7♠ hit the turn, Kozieja took the initiative with a bet of 1,700, which Meitanies called.
They both checked again on the 5♣ river, leading to a showdown. Kozieja revealed 7♥6♦ for a pair of sevens, enough to take the pot as Meitanies tossed his cards into the muck.
In the very next hand, Meitanies once again opened from under the gun, raising to 2,500. This time, Kozieja wasn't playing around and went all in for his last 19,000. Without hesitation, Meitanies snap-called.
Kozieja turned over A♣K♥, while Meitanies showed 6♠6♥, slightly ahead in the race.
The dealer revealed K♠K♣9♥ on the flop, flipping the script entirely. Meitanies must have been hoping for another six, but the 5♠ turn didn't help and the river brought the A♠, giving Kozieja a full house and allowing him to double up.
Nick Palma opened to 2,500 from the hijack and was called by Pavlou Pavlos in the cutoff, Omar Del Pino in the small blind, and Erwin Wiechers in the big blind for a four-way pot.
Everyone checked on the 8♦10♥7♠ flop and 3♣ turn and then Del Pino led out for 2,600 after the 2♥ completed the board. Wiechers and Palma quickly folded, but Pavlos raised to 12,000. Del Pino didn't believe and called and Pavlos tabled 4♦4♣.
Del Pino had it beat with his K♥7♥ for a pair of sevens and he collected the pot.
Action was on the river on a board of 3♦9♠4♦6♥Q♦ and Alexander Neumann moved all in. Apostolos Stylianou went into the tank and started talking himself through the hand before making the call.
Neumann showed A♦6♠ for a pair of sixes that he'd turned into a bluff. Stylianou flipped over 7♣5♦ for a straight to win the pot and send Neumann to the rail.
Rosalie Petit set the stage with a raise to 2,500. In the small blind, Dinesh Alt decided to go all in for his last 2,000, while Halil Gungor, sitting in the big blind, called Petit’s raise without hesitation.
As the flop came down 2♥K♦Q♥, all players checked, keeping the tension alive.
When the 6♦ appeared on the turn, Gungor took the initiative, betting 4,500. Petit thought twice and ultimately decided to fold, opting not to put her fiancée, Alt, in a tough spot.
At showdown, Alt revealed A♠J♣, while Gungor showed K♠9♥. Alt was hoping for a saving card on the river, but when the Q♦ hit, it wasn't enough, sending him to the cash desk for a reentry.
Soteris Charalambous open-raised from middle position and Dmitry Koleznev moved all in from late position with a short stack of just 8,000. Charalambous called and players turned their cards.
Dmitry Koleznev: A♠9♠
Soteris Charalambous: 2♠2♣
The board ran out 8♣J♣Q♣5♦7♥ and Charalambous held with his pocket deuces to win the pot, sending Koleznev to the rail.
Silvia Peternell opened to 2,400 from early position and was called by Boris Tabiyev on the button and Jorge Ufano Pardo in the big blind.
Action checked through on the 5♣J♣J♠ flop and then Pardo led out for 4,300 on the 7♠ turn. Peternell quickly raised to 10,000, which got a fold from Tabiyev, as well as a fold from Pardo after a lengthy tank to send the pot Peternell's way.
