Niveau 30 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Claudio Di Giacomo raised to 300,000 in the small blind, Ivan Nikolov moved all in for 735,000 in the big blind, and Di Giacomo called.

Ivan Nikolov: Q♥10♥4♠3♠ All in
Claudio Di Giacomo: A♥K♠K♣6♠

Di Giacomo was ahead with his kings, but the J♥5♥2♣ flop gave Nikolov some hope with a flush draw. The 9♣ turn also gave him a straight draw as Tomasz Kozub pretended to cover Nikolov's eyes heading to the river, which came the J♦ as Di Giacomo dodged all of Nikolov's outs to send him to the rail in fifth place.

Niveau 30 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Stefan Kostner opened from under the gun to 250,000 and Tomasz Kozub called on the button. Hristiyan Banov also came along from the big blind.

The three saw a flop of 2♦A♥7♣ which Banov checked, and Kostner fired 550,000. Kozub called, and Banov then shoved for 720,000. Kostner and Kozub both called.

With Banov already all-in, the turn brought a 9♦ and Kostner shoved for 940,000. Kozub snap-called.

Hristiyan Banov: A♠Q♠J♠5♦ All in
Stefan Kostner: A♦K♣J♥5♥ All in
Tomasz Kozub: A♣10♦8♦2♣

Kozub had two pair plus both straight & flush draws and was the favorite to score a double knockout. Kostner and Banov shared some cards but the miracle Q♣ on the river gave the latter a bigger two pair, which gave him a triple-up.

The side pot went to Kozub, who was still scratching his head wondering how he isn't an overwhelming chip leader with four players remaining. Instead, only Kostner was eliminated which left five players in contention.

Niveau 29 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Hristiyan Banov opened the button to 280,000 and Claudio Di Giacomo shoved from the big blind. Banov called off his stack of 475,000.

Hristiyan Banov: A♦A♣10♥6♥ All in
Claudio Di Giacomo: A♠K♠5♦5♣

Despite Di Giacomo flopping a king on the 7♦K♥4♥ board, the rest of the runout changed nothing as neither the Q♦ turn nor 9♦ river could eliminate Banov.
