Natale Polizzotto moved all in for 75,000 from the cutoff and was called by Gregory Grech in the big blind.
Natale Polizzotto: Q♥4♥ 
Gregory Grech: A♠8♠
Polizzotto was behind, but the 3♣K♦4♣ flop put him into the lead with a pair of fours. The 10♠ river was a brick, and Polizzotto was calling for a deuce on the river. Sure enough the 2♦ landed to send him the double-up.
Florian Dos Santos Pires opened in early position and received calls from Gianfranco Iaculli in middle position, Laurent Michot in the cutoff and Mario Adinolfi in the big blind.
On the A♥J♠3♠ flop, Pires continued with a bet of 27,000, only to be faced with a raise to 75,000 from Iaculli. Michot and Adinolfi got out of the way, and Pires went into the tank.
After some thought, and with the bubble approaching, Pires mucked his hand. Pires asked his opponent to show one, but he politely declined.

Gianfranco Iaculli was raking in a double-up, having been all-in for 180,000 and at risk versus Mario Adinolfi.
Iaculli's A♣2♣ bested Adinolfi's A♥J♥ on 6♣3♣4♠2♦9♣, Iaculli ending up with the nut flush, although he had been ahead on the turn with a pair of twos.
Adinolfi's stack has come back towards the field after the last two hands saw him sustain some damage.
Cards were on their backs and stacks were in the middle on a board of A♥A♣8♦8♣, with Tal Sardal all-in for 132,000 and at risk versus big stack Mario Adinolfi.
Tal Sardal: A♠Q♣
Mario Adinolfi: 8♠4♠
Adinolfi was drawing to the last remaining eight, with his full house bettered by Sardal's, and it did not arrive on the 5♣ river, sending Sardal a timely double-up.
Mehdi Dhouimer opened to 12,000 in early position and was faced with a three-bet to 38,000 by Andrew Hawkins on the button. Action folded back to Dhouimer, who made the call.
On the 9♠6♠2♥ flop, Dhouimer check-called a bet of 27,000 from Hawkins.
The 10♠ rolled off on the turn, and Dhouimer again check-called versus a bet of 65,000 from Hawkins.
The J♠ river completed the board, and Dhouimer asked to see his opponent's stack, before checking. Hawkins immediately shipped his remaining 95,000 into the middle, and Dhouimer quickly folded.
Hawkins showed A♣K♥ for ace-high and raked in the pot.

Wei Tsai opened to 10,000 in early position and was met with a three-bet to 25,000 by Gianfranco Iaculli in the small blind. Action folded back to Tsai, who called.
On the A♣5♣J♥ flop, Iaculli continued with a bet of 15,000. Tsai called after a short period of thought.
The 3♣ rolled off on the turn, and Iaculli continued with the aggression, sliding out a bet of 40,000, leading to a quick fold from Tsai.
Action folded to Franck Yau in the small blind, who raised to 15,000. Priamo Carta defended his big blind.
The 7♠6♣4♣ flop was checked through by both players.
On the 6♠ turn, Yau led out with a bet of 15,000 and Carta called.
The Q♠ river was checked by both players. Yau showed J♠4♦ for a pair of fours, and that was good enough to force Carta to muck his hand.
Laurent Polito opened to 12,000 under the gun and Ruben Vedovelli three-bet jammed for 25,000 in middle position. Action folded back to Polito who called.
Ruben Vedovelli: A♠J♦
Laurent Polito: 3♣3♠
Vedovelli was behind in a race against Polito's pocket pair, and no help arrived on the Q♥8♣9♣8♠4♣ runout, sending him to the rail.
