Action was on the turn on a board of A♥4♥J♣9♣ and Christoforos Chrysochoidis made a bet of 3,200. Fouad Toujani raised it up to 11,200 and then glared across at his opponent like he wanted a fight. Chrysochoidis didn't seem scared, but opted to fold his hand anyway and conceded the pot.

There were already around 8,000 chips in the pot on a flop of J♠Q♥10♦ when Mykhaylo Erstenyuk fired 3,500, which got Leonidas Kostagiolas to fold. Andrei Sediakin then put in a raise to 8,500, and Erstenyuk shoved for around 19,000. Sediakin snap-called.
Mykhaylo Erstenyuk: A♥K♥
Andrei Sediakin: A♦K♣
It was no surprise to see that both players had that same hand, but Erstenyuk did have a freeroll with his backdoor heart draw. However, the 4♠ turn put an end to that tiny bit of equity that Erstenyuk had, and the K♦ fell on the river, which meant they both chopped up the chips.
Andrey Koks opened to 400 from early position, and Alon Huberman defended his big blind.
The 10♣7♠6♣ flop was checked through. On the 10♠ turn, Huberman led out with a bet of 600, and Koks called.
The river brought the 6♠, and after some thought, Huberman fired out a bet of 2,500, leading to a swift fold from Koks.

Mehmet Demirkol opened the action from the cutoff with a raise to 300, only to be three-bet by Vladislav Dubanov in the big blind to 1,200. Unfazed, Demirkol four-bet to 3,600, and Dubanov made the call.
The flop came 9♠8♣4♣, and Demirkol continued with a bet of 1,600, which Dubanov check-called.
Both players opted to check on the 5♥ turn.
The river brought the 6♦, and this time Dubanov took control with a hefty bet of 7,500. Demirkol went deep into the tank, thinking it over for a good three minutes before making the call. Dubanov double-checked his cards at showdown but ultimately decided to muck, allowing Demirkol to scoop the pot without revealing his hand.
Aimar Gonzalez opened to 300 from early position, and Sergei Bortsov pumped it up to 1,100 from the button. Iurii Okolovich was in the small blind, and he produced a cold four-bet to 2,800. Gonzalez got out of the way, but Bortsov called.

With around 7,000 chips in the pot on a board that read 3♠6♠2♦9♣, Monica Vaka had checked it over to Adrien Quetelart, who then made a bet of 6,000. Vaka put in the check-raise to 15,000, which left Quetelart with a decision for his remaining stack of just over 8,000. After a while in the tank, Quetelart elected to put himself at risk, and called.
Adrien Quetelart: Q♣Q♦
Monica Vaka: 9♠9♦
It was a great turn card for Vaka as she improved to a set, which left Quetelart with just two outs to survive. The J♥ river was close, but not close enough for Quetelart as he became one of the first casualties of the day.
Gerard Rubiralta raised to 300 from under the gun and Vitalii Viunchenko three-bet to 1,300, which Rubiralta called.

The river was the 6♦ and Rubiralta fired out a blocking bet of 800, which Viunchenko called. Rubiralta had Q♣Q♠ for pocket queens and Viunchenko mucked to give him the pot.
Evgenii Ushakov limped under the gun and Ryan Mandara raised to 500 over the limper. Barny Boatman called on the button and Ushakov called.
The flop came 9♠2♦K♠ and Ushakov led for 300. Mandara wasn't having any of it and raised to 1,300. Boatman and Ushakov both folded and Mandara claimed the pot.
Action folded to Marco Poccia on the button, who opened to 300, receiving a call from Yiannis Liperis in the small blind. Eric Afriat was in the big blind, and he reached for chips before producing a three-bet to 1,500. Both of his opponents came along for the ride.
