After a preflop raise and four callers, we see the flop and Thiago Crema De Macedo bet 17,000. Only Alex Bilokur called to see the turn. Both players checked and the completed the board.
It turned out to be the money card for Bilokur. Crema De Macedo bet 37,500 and after about one minute of consideration, Bilokur made it 91,500. His value bet got paid off and Bilokur showed for the stone cold nuts.
We also caught the tweet of Raul Mestre about the previous huge hand. He apparently had and a gut shot on the flop:
Dominik Nitsche got severely wounded (chip stack wise) in that hand with Stephen Chidwick before the break. He's recovering though, it's time for his big comeback.
Nitsche shoved, reshoved and got a walk in his big blind (with queens nonetheless) and gained some chips without a showdown. Just now he did have to show his cards, and he had the best hand.
He open shoved the cutoff for 69,500 and neighbor Rafael Morales reshoved from the button. Both blinds folded and they tabled their cards.
Rafael Morales:
Dominik Nitsche:
Nitsche's hand would hold up: . Nitsche doubles to over 150,000 in chips, Morales is left with 80,000.
Tom Alner got his stack of 126,000 all in preflop and received a call from Team PokerStars Pro Vicky Coren, who had recently moved tables.

Coren:
Alner was in trouble, but he found some help on the . Neither the turn nor river changed a thing, and Coren had no other option than to take to Twitter.
Dominik Nitsche was severely short, by what hand we're not sure. We are sure he had just 32,000 left when action folded to him in the small blind just now. He pushed all in and Giacomo Fundaro in the big blind was quick to call.
Giacomo Fundaro:
Dominik Nitsche:
Nitsche would out flop his Italian opponent on , but the on the turn meant he needed a nine or four to stay alive. The on the river meant he wasn't going to make another heroic comeback, Nitsche busted in 46th place (€10,170).
