Axel Hallay bet 60,000 from under the gun on a flop of 8♥2♥6♠ and Hyunsup Kim called in the big blind.

The turn came the 7♦ and Hallay bet another 200,000. Kim again called and the Q♠ fell on the river.

Hallay then bet 650,000, sending Kim into the tank. A few minutes went by before Hallay called the clock. The countdown had just begun when Kim mucked his cards.

Zdenek Zizka raised it up for Jacob Amsellem to call and Fabian Gumz defended the big blind as well.

The 5♠5♥3♦ flop was checked by Gumz, Zizka bet 33,000 and Amsellem raised to 75,000. Gumz folded and Zizka then reraised to 200,000 for Amsellem to stick around.

Zizka checked the 6♥ turn and folded when Amsellem bet 130,000. That pot increased the big stack of Amsellem, who is currently chasing Axel Hallay atop the leaderboard.

Keneshka Kabir had open-raised preflop from early position and Axel Hallay made the call from the button. Vito Vella also came along from the big blind and the three saw a flop of 2♦6♠9♠.

Vella checked to Kabir, who made a bet of 75,000. Hallay called, while Vella got out of the way. On the 7♥ turn, Kabir slowed down and checked, prompting Hallay to bet 125,000 himself. Now it was Kabir who made the call, and the K♣ river completed the board.

Kabir checked once more before Hallay over-bet jammed, covering the 720,000 chips that Kabir had behind. Kabir did not take long before flicking in a call and Hallay showed K♠7♠ for two pair.

Kabir had to show his 9♥8♥ for second pair, as is customary with all-in showdowns. The former chipleader left the tournament area, while Hallay crossed the three-million mark by adding Kabir's chips to his own.

Heads-up on a board of 7♦Q♦9♣7♠, Ioannis Angelou-Konstas bet 32,000 from the big blind and Viktor Blom called in the cutoff.

The river was the A♠ and Angelou-Konstas checked over to Blom, who splashed in a bet of 200,000. Angelou-Konstas spent a minute in the tank before calling.

Blom's cards quickly hit the muck and Angelou-Konstas showed 9♠6♥ for two pair to win the pot.

"I would never bluff you. You've called me too many times," tablemate Fabian Gumz told him after the hand.

The action was caught when the completed board of A♠Q♥K♠5♥K♦ was already dealt. Michael Rocco had bet 374,000 chips, exactly enough to put his opponent Carsten Szekeres all-in.

Szekeres pondered his options for a while before announcing "I can't fold". Rocco tabled A♦3♥ for two pair, aces and kings, and Szekeres had to show his 3♠3♣ for a daring herocall.

"I guess he's not folding an ace," Rocco dryly remarked after Szekeres had exited the tournament area.
