Heads-up on a board of 5♠8♣4♦6♠2♥, Martin Kabrhel in the big blind bet 5,000.

"If you go all in, you're my new hero... After Taylor (the dealer's name)," Kabrhel said to the under-the gun player, who raised 25,000.

"What do you have?" Kabrhel asked. "I don't believe you. I have to call your bluff," he added before making the call. The under-the-gun player revealed 7♣7♦ for a straight and scooped the pot.

"I'm on tilt now," Kabrhel said while three-betting on the next hand. He made a continuation-bet on the 2♥9♣3♠ flop, but made his opponent fold.

A large pot was brewing in a hand between Kosei Ichinose and two other players. Action picked up on the turn with one short-stacked player already all-in, and about 125,000 in the main pot.

With roughly 85,000 in the side pot, and the board reading 3♥5♦10♠4♦, Ichinose's opponent bet enough to put him all-in for his last 77,000. Ichinose made the call.

Short-stacked player: 9♥9♣ All in
Ichinose: Q♦10♦ All in
Opponent: K♦K♣

The river brought the 7♦, and Ichinose's flush awarded him both the main and side pots.

In a blind versus blind situation, the small blind checked so Julien Sitbon only had to check his option to discover a flop of 2♥6♥J♠.

The small blind continued for 6,000, then fired a second barrel of 11,000 on the A♥ turn. Sitbon called both times.

On the 9♥ river, the player in the small blind bet 15,000 but Simon raised to 42,000. The small blind went into the tank, but eventually folded.

Niveau 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Over 200,000 had gone into the middle preflop between Martin Kabrhel and the player in the big blind, with Kabrhel's opponent being all-in and at risk.

Big Blind: K♦K♠ All in
Martin Kabrhel J♥J♣

Kabrhel asked the dealer for two jacks but the dealer didn't comply as the flop fell 2♣10♣5♥. The 6♣ turn offered up a flush draw for Kabrhel and he managed to spike the flush on the river when the 7♣ came. Kabhrel moves up to over the 600,000 chip mark.

Niveau 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

From the big blind, Ren Lin had called a raise from a player in middle position to see a flop of 6♠10♠3♦. After Lin checked, his opponent fired out a bet of 8,000. This was met by a quick check-raise to 26,000 by Lin. His opponent didn't think for too long before three-bet shoving for 155,000, which was similar to the amount Lin had in his stack. Lin opted to fold his hand and forfeit the pot to his opponent.

Action folded to Kevin Martin on the button who raised to 10,000. Both the blinds defended.

The flop came 2♦A♣8♦ and both blinds were quick to check. Martin fired for 8,000 and only the big blind called.

While the 10♣ peeled off on the turn, the big blind again checked to Martin. He continued for 16,000 and received a call.

The 4♠ peeled off on the river and the big blind checked. Martin jammed all in for just over 50,000 and was rewarded as his opponent made a quick fold.
