Three-handed on a flop of 3♦8♣9♠, Renji Mao moved all in for 99,000 in early position and Omar Eljach folded the button. Gab Yong Kim, though, called in the big blind.
Renji Mao: A♥A♠6♣4♦
Gab Yong Kim: K♦Q♥J♥8♦
Mao was ahead with his pair of aces, while Kim had a pair of eights. The 2♠ turn was no help to Kim, but the K♥ arrived on the river and Mao let out a loud groan as Kim made two pair to bust the bracelet winner.
Tobias Peters was eliminated on the feature table by Wooram Cho and the action on the outer tables hasn't slowed down either.
Dario Alioto limped from under the gun and then called a raise to 40,000 by Namhyung Kim in the big blind.
Kim continued for 40,000 on the Q♣6♦6♠ flop and Alioto called. Both checked the 9♠ turn and Kim also checked the K♥ river. Alioto bet 80,000 only for his opponent to check-raise the pot, forcing a very reluctant fold by Alioto.
Kasparas Klezys raised to 35,000 under the gun and Dorel Eldabach and Patrik Jaros came along from the blinds.
The flop came 9♣5♠2♦ and Jaros bet 63,000. Klezys then moved all in for 60,000. "Gambling," Eldabach said as he called.
Jaros then put in his last 22,000 and turned over A♥K♠Q♥9♦ before Eldabach had a chance to act. The floor ruled his bet had to stay in the middle while Eldabach would get a decision on the turn.
"Can I take this back," Jaros joked as the 7♠ fell. Eldabach then called and showed A♦J♥10♥3♦. Both players were trailing the A♠Q♠Q♣5♥ of Klezys.
"Deuce," Klezys pleaded, and he got his wish as the dealer turned over the 2♥ to earn him a triple up. Jaros took the small side pot against Eldabach.
Marc Palatzky raised to 25,000 from under the gun and Quirin Zech called out of the big blind. Zech check-called a bet on the A♠K♦J♠ flop and check-called all-in for 91,000 on the 8♣ turn.
Quirin Zech: Q♠J♦10♦8♥
Marc Palatzky: A♥A♦5♣4♦
Palatzky needed the board to pair but the 2♠ river secured the double for Zech.
Niveau: 18
Blinds: 5,000/10,000
Ante: 10,000
Players are on an extended 30-minute break while the tables are moved upstairs to the main feature area.
Dario Alioto moved all in for 146,000 in the big blind and Quirin Zech called in middle position.
Dario Alioto: A♠10♣9♦8♠
Quirin Zech: A♦A♣4♦2♣
Zech was a big favorite with his aces as the flop came 7♣2♦3♣. The turn was the J♦ and Alioto picked up a straight draw.
The 9♥ fell on the river and Alioto completed his straight to earn a double up. Zech flung his hands in the air in frustration and continued to mutter to himself after the hand as the pot was pushed to Alioto.
Farid Jattin raised to 25,000 in middle position and Levan Rcheulishvili called in the cutoff, as did big blind Wooram Cho.
The flop came 3♦Q♥A♣ and Jattin continued for 73,000. Only Cho called to the 9♠ turn, where Jattin bet another 140,000.
Cho called and the K♠ fell on the river. Jattin then moved all in and Cho snap-called for his last 244,000, showing A♥K♦10♦4♦ for two pair. Jattin could only show J♣9♣4♥3♥ for nines and threes as he handed over the massive pot.
Omar Eljach raised to 20,000 in early position and Barny Boatman called in the cutoff. Pascal Foged then three-bet to 103,000 in the small blind and only Boatman called.
The flop came 8♣6♠10♣ and Foged shoved for his last 145,000. Boatman quickly called.
Pascal Foged: A♠Q♠Q♣9♠
Barny Boatman: A♥A♦4♣2♠
Foged had run into Boatman's aces and found no help on the 7♦ turn or K♥ river as he was sent to the rail.
