With just 7,500 chips remaining, Antonio Cabanas open-shoved from under the gun. He was called in the hijack by Alexandre Renoux. All over players folded and it went to a showdown.
Antonio Cabanas: A♣8♦
Alexandre Renoux: A♥J♥
The 6♣5♥4♣ flop added any seven to Cabanas' outs.
The Belgian has even more hope on the turn, with the 2♣ giving him a flush draw as well.
A club didn't come, but the 7♥ river did, completing Cabanas' straight and awarding him a much-needed double up.
'This is a good dealer,' he remarked, as he collected his chips.
Nível: 14
Blinds: 1,500/3,000
Ante: 3,000
Heads-up on a board of 10♣3♠5♣4♥, Ori Hasson bet 13,000 from the cutoff and Lionel Lacolas called in the big blind.
The river came the K♦ and Lacolas checked over to Hasson again. Hasson this time cut out a bet of 54,000 and put it in the middle. Lacolas tanked for a few moments before giving up his hand as both players are sitting on stacks of around 200,000.
The pot stood at 31,000 with two players looking at a board that read A♦8♥4♣9♣.
Damien Beziau, in the cutoff, bet out for 13,500. In response, Raif El Arigie Harbie moved all in for approximately 47,000. Beziau snap-called.
Raif El Arigie Harbie: 9♥8♣
Damien Beziau:A♠K♦
The river landed the 8♠. Harbie was way out in front and remained that way, claiming the full double-up with his full house.
Luigi D'Alterio was deep in the tank as he faced a decision in a heads-up pot against Lucas Scafini on a board of 8♠9♠7♠K♣8♦.
With around 65,000 in the middle, D'Alterio had checked and Scafini bet a stack of over 100,000 to put his opponent all in for less. After several minutes, D'Alterio called.
Scafini tabled K♠J♦ for a pair of kings to pip the K♦10♠ kicker of D'Alterio to mark the Italian's elimination.
"Value or bluff? I can't tell," D'Alterio commented about his opponent's river bet.
Adrian-Eugen Constantin moved all in for a little over ten big blinds from middle position. His shove of 30,000 was called by Cezar Neto on the button, taking it to showdown.
Adrian-Eugen Constantin: 7♦7♥
Cezar Neto: 8♣8♥
The flop came 5♠K♦Q♠ and left Constantin a massive underdog.
There was no better news on the turn for the Romanian when the 6♥ landed.
His elimination was confirmed on the 3♣ river as Neto's eights held to secure him the pot.
Lorenzo Cherubini moved all in from early position and Giulio Astarita called for his last 41,500 in middle position.
Giulio Astarita: Q♦Q♣
Lorenzo Cherubini: A♥J♥
As tournament officials arrived to break this table, the dealer turned over the 7♦2♥2♠J♣9♦ board. Cherubini improved no further beyond the pair of jacks he made on the turn and handed over most of his stack.
The pot stood at 15,500 with two players looking at a board that read 7♠8♠3♣. Bruno Miron, in the big blind, checked the action to Peter Stephen, in early position. Stephen bet out 8,000 and Miron called.
The 6♣ turned and the action repeated; this time Stephen betting 17,000.
The K♦ river checked to a showdown. Stephen was quick to table his K♥10♥. Miron looked disgruntled as he showed the table A♠2♠ implying he'd been ahead the whole time. Stephen claimed this pot.
Braz Borges was out of position in a heads-up pot against Oglu Emil on a board reading K♠8♣J♠4♣10♠.
With around 60,000 already in the middle, Borges checked and faced a bet of 30,000 from his opponent. Borges went deep in the tank and a tablemate eventually called the clock.
With his final seconds winding down, Borges called. Emil showed A♠2♠ for a rivered nut flush and Borges mucked in defeat.
