Niveau 6 : Blinds 800/1,500, 1,500 ante

Stanislav Tishkevich opened hijack to 3,500 and Xiaosheng Zheng three-bet from the small blind to 14,000. Tishkevich then made a four-bet to 30,000, and Zheng moved all in. Tishkevich quickly called for his full stack of around 100,000.

Stanislav Tishkevich: K♦K♥ All in
Xiaosheng Zheng: K♠Q♣

Zheng was in a a less-than-ideal situation, but did flop some hope when he paired his queen on Q♥5♦4♠. However, neither the 9♦ turn nor 4♣ river could earn him the pot, and Tishkevich doubled up.

On a flop of 4♣J♣8♦, there were already around 50,000 chips in the pot when Zhen Chen checked from the small blind, as did a player in middle position. Hassan Halil was on the button and made it 8,000, which both of his opponents called.

All three checked the 4♦ turn to the 9♥ river, where the action checked to Halil, who fired out 25,000. Chen thought for a while before he made a huge raise to 200,000, which got the player in middle position to fold. However, Halil snap-called for his stack of around 60,000.

Chen showed 10♥10♠, but Halil was never folding his 9♠9♣ as he rivered a set.

Rudolf Fourie raised to 3,200 from under the gun and Alisa Sibgatova called on the button. Mircea Flutur also called from the big blind.

They went to a monotone flop of 5♥8♥Q♥ where Flutur checked and Fourie bet 7,000. Sibgatova folded, and Flutur called.

When the 3♥ on the turn pout four hearts on board, both checked to the 10♦ river, where Flutur put out a small bet of 5,000.

"Ahhh, this is sick," said Fourie before he eventually called.

Flutur then revealed K♣9♥ for a flush, but Fourie had a bigger flush with 10♥10♠ to take the pot.

Skarparis' Ace Gets Exposed

Niveau 5 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Georgios Skarparis was receiving his cards from the dealer and unfortunately for him, the A♥ was exposed and was swapped out for another card. A player in early position then made it 2,500 and despite losing an ace, Skarparis called. Renars Skanis then squeezed to 8,000, which only Skarparis called.

On the A♠6♠7♦ flop, Skarparis checked and Skanis fired a small continuation-bet, which got Skarparis to fold. Skarparis then revealed K♥Q♥ and said he would have been dealt Big Slick if he had kept the ace. Skanis showed J♥J♠, which suggests they might gave gotten the chips in preflop.

Despite that, Skarparis was still in good spirits and sits with around 170,000 at the midway point of the day.

Niveau 5 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

There was a raise from under the gun to 2,400 and Rudolf Fourie called from the hijack. Marc Foggin also called from the cutoff.

The three saw a flop of 5♣K♦9♣ where it checked to Fourie, who bet 7,000. Foggin called, and the under-the-gun player folded.

A 4♦ dropped on the turn and Fourie showed no signs of slowing down as he announced a bet of 18,000. Foggin took just a few seconds before he called.

Fourie did eventually slow down when the scary A♠ came on the river, and Foggin knuckled back.

Fourie then showed a pair of kings with K♣Q♦, and Foggin mucked.
