Players are now on a 15-minute break.
Amer Mahasen opened to 6,500 from under the gun and Christos Leantzis three-bet to 16,000 from the button. Mahasen made the call.
Both players checked the flop and turn leading to a final board of K♥6♥3♦A♣J♥. Mahasen checked, Leantzis bet 15,000 and Mahasen made the call.
Leantzis tabled J♣J♠ for a rivered set of jacks to take the pot.
Action was opened under the gun to 5,000 by Clement Bonnant. It folded to the cutoff who took a moment before putting in a three-bet to 14,000. The rest of the players folded and action was back on Bonnant who went deep into the tank.
After about a minute he put in a warm four-bet to the tune of 37,000. His opponent thought over his options but without wasting much of the tables time he folded.
Bonnant scooped a decent pile of chips without even seeing a flop.
Simas Karaliunas opened to 6,000 from the cutoff and Ege Guven three-bet to 18,500 from the big blind. Karaliunas made the call.
The flop came p9c7d4h] and Guven fired a 11,000 continuation bet. Karaliunas raised to 35,000 and Guven made the call.
On the 4♦ turn Guven checked, Karaliunas bet 60,000 and Guven called.
The river was the J♣ and Guven lead out with a bet of 95,000, forcing a fold from Karaliunas.
Maxime Chilaud opened in late position to 5,500 before the small blind and Hadi Khordbin in the big blind both called.
The J♥10♦K♦ flop landed and action checked to Chilaud who continued for 6,500. The small blind folded and action was back on Khordbin who put in a large check-raise to 22,000. Chilaud thought it over and then called.
The A♣ hit the turn and action slowed down and checked through to a 5♦ river. Khordbin put his foot back on the gas and bet out for 31,000.
Chilaud went into the tank and after about a minute he flicked in a chip. Khordbin tabed Q♣9♠ for the nuts and Chilaud mucked.
Aleksei Petrov opened to 5,500 in early position and was called by Tamazi Skhirtladze in middle position.
The flop came K♣8♦2♥ and Petrov fired a 5,000 continuation bet that was called by Skhirtladze.
Petrov bet again for 20,000 on the 10♠ turn and once again Skhirtladze made the call.
On the A♠ river Petrov checked and Skhirtladze moved all in for approximately 75,000.
