Armand Muratoglu was ousted on the two outer feature tables and the next all-in showdown followed shortly after in the poker arena. Volkan Alkan three-bet and then called all-in when Cristian Nogales Bravo as the initial raiser squeezed.
Volkan Alkan: 
Cristian Nogales Bravo: 
Nogales Bravo shook his head when the cards were exposed and found no help on the 
board.
Mahersh Selvakumaran raised it up and then called the shove by Gordon Hegner for 283,000, who turned over his cards and walked away from his seat.
Gordon Hegner: 
Mahersh Selvakumaran: 
The 
flop let Hegner celebrate and the turn locked up the double, which made the 
river a formality.
Stefan Bittger became the next casualty on the two outer stream tables and shortly after, the field was reduced to the final 50 in the poker arena. Frank Griese was the player at risk for 253,000 and he was called by Matteo Cirillo with the far bigger stack.
Frank Griese: 
Matteo Cirillo: 
The 
flop gave Griese middle set while Cirillo had top pair only. After the 
turn, Cirillo only had four outs and he nailed one of them with the river. Griese left his chair in silence and slowly walked out of the tournament area.
Ladislav Kellner looked up the shove by table short stack Benny Kneepkens for 214,000 and the Dutchman was in prime shape for a double.
Benny Kneepkens:
Ladislav Kellner:
"No ace please," Kneepkens demanded. The board ran out 
and the Dutchman indeed doubled.
The cards of Joachim Beilharz were already in the muck as his chips were pushed towards Mihaita Georgita. The latter had defended the big blind with 
and flopped two pair, then made a full house on the river of a 
board.
At the same time one table over, a rather small pot to the 
river saw Dmytro Bystrovzorov lead for 55,000 in the small blind. Alessandro Pichierri raised to 155,000 in the cutoff with around as much behind and Bystrovzorov moved all-in. Pichierri went deep into the tank and the clock was called on him.
With around five seconds left, Pichierri called it off and Bystrovzorov tabled the 
for aces full to knock out Pichierri with 
for trips kings.
Joining the action on the 
turn, Philip Hollederer bet 130,000 and was called by Feyzullah Karaarslan. The river was checked by the former and Karaarslan then bet 150,000 in order to shut down his somewhat suspicious table neighbour.
Jaroslav Peter raised to 40,000 in the cutoff and instantly called the shove by Claudio Daffina in the small blind.
Claudio Daffina: 
Jaroslav Peter:
The 
board left Daffina drawing dead on the turn as he became the 55th place finisher.
Sharon Ben David busted on the two outer tables upstairs while Josef Huber saw his tournament life come to an end in the back of the poker arena.
Huber got it in preflop and had a classic flip against Maris Gicovanu.
Josef Huber:
Marius Gicovanu:
The 
board gave Gicavonu superior two pair and Huber was the last player to settle for €3,730.
Adam Ondrik pushed for the last 220,000 from under the gun and was called by Simone Miracoli from two seats over. Mihaita Georgita then reshoved for 383,000 in the big blind with Miracoli quickly calling.
Adam Ondrik:
Mihaita Georgita:
Simone Miracoli: 
"Come on, ace or king one time, it's not that difficult," Ondrik sighed in table chat. However, it was Georgita who ended up with the best hand on the 
board to double with a set.
