With 14,000 in the pot on the turn and the board reading K♥Q♦8♣J♠, Stanislav Anufriiev checked his small blind to Ionut Lupulescu who bet 5,000.
Anufriiev called and the dealer completed the board with the 5♠. Anufriiev checked again. Lupulescu fired another bet, this time for 9,000, which Anufriiev quickly called.
Lupulescu could only show A♦2♠ for ace-high, while Anufriiev turned over A♥K♠ for top pair, top kicker to take the pot.
Action was followed after Haruto Murata had jammed the flop from the cutoff into Ladislao Batlle in middle position with the pot at around 40,000.
The 2♥9♥4♠ board was already showing and Batlle took some time to think before folding his hand, leaving Murata to scoop the pot.
Murata showed his K♥J♥ flush draw to the table before the dealer shuffled the deck.

With Andrea Volpi's last 800 chips committed in the big blind, Francesco Delfoco opened with an early position limp which was followed by a hijack raise to 3,300 and a button call.
Delfoco then reraised to 9,200 which shed both opponents, leaving Volpi's potential elimination in his hands.
Andrea Volpi: Q♦7♠
Francesco Delfoco: 9♣9♦
The board came A♦Q♣A♠Q♠3♠ as Delfoco's creatively played nines took the side pot, but Volpi was able to quadruple up for the moment before being eliminated shortly after.
After Fintan Hand raised to 1,600 under the gun, Jose Gonzalez Sanchez moved all in for 15,700. Hand called to put him at risk.
Jose Gonzalez Sanchez: K♦Q♣
Fintan Hand: A♦K♠
The board came 9♦8♣4♠K♥4♦ as Hand's superior kicker scored the knockout.
Players were already heads-up with the cards face-up. Murat Erkmen was all in for around 9,000 and at risk from the small blind against Brian Ganon in a middle position.
Murat Erkmen: A♥7♥
Brian Ganon: A♦Q♦
The flop came 5♦3♠K♥ with Ganon still ahead.
The 7♦ turn gave Erkmen a pair of sevens which was good enough for the double as the 6♠ river didn't bring in the flush for Ganon.
