Three players went to the river on a board of 10♥5♠K♠J♥K♦ with already around 40,000 in the pot when Antoine Saout bet 30,000 from the cutoff.
Sam Greenwood called on the button, while Carlos Ribeiro folded in the big blind. Greenwood turned over A♥Q♥ for a straight and Saout sent jack-ten into the muck as Greenwood raked in the big pot.
Ricardo Graells opened to 2,000 from under the gun and Sam Grafton raised to 10,000 from the small blind. Graells made the call.
The flop came K♦3♠2♠ and Grafton fired a 4,000 continuation-bet that was called by Graells.
Grafton sized up with a 20,000 bet on the 3♥ turn and this time Graells opted to fold.
Paul Runcan opened to 2,000 from under the gun, Andriy Lyubovetskiy three-bet to 5,500 next to act, and Alexander Ivarsson cold four-bet third to act to 12,000. Runcan folded while Lyubovetskiy put in the call.
On the A♦4♠4♥, Ivarsson continued for 5,000 and Lyubovetskiy quickly called.
The K♠ turned checked through to the Q♠ river which saw Lyubovetskiy check for a third time. Ivarsson opted to jam for 33,000 and Lyubovetskiy folded after some deliberation.
On a turn of Q♠9♠5♣Q♥, Enrico Camosci made a bet of 7,500 into a pot of 22,000 from the small blind and was called by Juho Suutari on the button.
The 7♦ river saw Camosci slow down with a check, after which Suutari bet 26,000. Camosci spent a few time banks before calling.
Suutari tabled Q♣J♠ for trip queens and Camosci sent his cards into the muck while paying the bet.
Mykhailo Demydenko opened to 2,000 from the hijack and John Juanda three-bet shoved to 19,200 from the small blind. Demydenko called with a covering stack to put him at risk.
John Juanda: A♠7♠ 
Mykhailo Demydenko: 10♣10♦
The board ran out 2♠7♦8♦K♥2♥. Demydenko's pocket tens held up and he took the pot while Juanda was sent to the rail.
Viktor Jensen raised to 2,400 in middle position before Gianluca Cedolia three-bet to 7,500 in the hijack. Jensen then moved all in and Cedolia quickly called for 59,100.
Gianluca Cedolia: A♣K♦
Viktor Jensen: 10♣10♥
The flop came A♦5♠4♠ and Cedolia took the lead with a pair of aces. Jensen was left looking for just two outs, but he missed the 8♦ turn and K♠ river as Cedolia improved to two pair to earn the double up.
Ren Lin opened to 2,500 from middle position and Eduard Barsegian defended from the big blind.
The flop came A♥7♠3♦ and Barsegian check-called a 1,500 continuation bet from Lin.
Both players checked the J♦ turn leading to the 9♥ river at which point Barsegian bet 4,500.
"Merry Christmas," Lin told his opponent before making the call. Barsegian turned over top pair with A♠4♠ and Lin mucked.
Arriving at a completed board of 8♠6♣Q♠5♥10♣, Vlado Banicevic checked out of the big blind to Rodrigo Araujo under the gun.
Araujo used one time bank before firing 17,000 into the pot of 30,500. Banicevic needed two time extensions of his own to toss in a call but quickly mucked his cards when Araujo tabled A♥Q♦ for top pair.
Alejandro Lococo and Alexander Ivarsson built a pot of around 15,000 as they saw a flop of 7♦6♠3♠. Lococo then bet 6,200 from the small blind and Ivarsson called on the button.
The turn was the 9♥ and Lococo took a peek at Ivarsson's stack, then slid forward a tower of chips to put Ivarsson all in for his last 40,000. Ivarsson quickly folded and Lococo took the pot.
