Alexander Neumann made it 1,000 to go from the hijack and Tonino Cardia called from the button before Gonzalo Pro made it 4,700 from the small blind. Neumann called, and Cardia folded.
On the 10♥7♠4♥ flop, Pro led out for 5,000, and Neumann made a quick call.
When the A♠ dropped on the turn, Pro fired again for 8,000, then Neumann put in the click to 17,500. It took just a few moments for Pro to fold, and Neumann was pushed the pot.

Wojciech Szczytkowski opened to 1,000 from middle position, and was faced with a three-bet to 3,000 by Ignas Jasinevicius in the hijack. Muhtar Taysi cold-called in the cutoff, and Szczytkowski came along for the ride.
On the K♥6♦6♣ flop, action was checked to Jasinevicius, who slid out a bet of 2,200, which only Szczytkowski called.
The J♥ hit on the turn, and Szczytkowski check-called versus a bet of 5,800 from his opponent.
The 10♦ river completed the board and was checked through.
Szczytkowski showed K♦Q♣ for top pair kings, but it was no good versus Jasinevicius' A♦K♣, the ace kicker sending him the pot.

There were already around 30,000 chips in the pot on a board of 8♦5♠3♦J♦ when Marios Stefani checked, and Neel Murthy fired 10,000. Stefani responded with an all-in wager, and Murthy snap-called.
Marios Stefani: A♦A♣ 
Neel Murthy: 9♦6♦
Murthy had a flush but Stefani had outs as another diamond on the river would give him a bigger flush. However, it wasn't to be for Stefani as the J♣ river meant he was eliminated.
"That's 1-1. He cracked my aces earlier, now I cracked his," said Murthy as he dragged the pot.

Katerina Aristotelous and Oliver Heidel got into a preflop raising war, which ended with them both having all of their chips in the middle.
Katerina Aristotelous: J♠J♥
Oliver Heidel: A♥Q♣
It was a fair flip but Aristotelous held a clear advantage after the 9♥8♦J♦ flop, as she improved to a set. A 3♠ turn was no help to Heidel, as neither was the A♠ river, which meant Aristotelous doubled up.
