The river was the 5♠. Tetart checked this time and van Luijk fired out a bet of 100,000. Tetart made the call and van Luijk flipped over A♥J♣ for a full house, fives full of jacks. Tetart mucked and van Luijk won the pot.
Jovan Kenjic opened to 40,000 from early position with A♣9♥ and received calls from Jonathan Guedes on the button with 9♦8♦ and Alexander "Wolfgang Poker" Seibt in the big blind with 7♣6♦.
The flop came 10♣8♣5♣ and all three players checked leading to the 5♥ turn. Seibt checked, Kenjic bet 75,000, Guedes called and Seibt folded.

The flop came 7♣4♦4♥. Kenjic checked, Cibicek bet 25,000 and Kenjic check-raised to 80,000. Cibicek raised to 150,000 and Kenjic folded.

Jovan Kenjic opened to 45,000 from under the gun with A♣2♣ and Jamil Wakil three-bet to 120,000 from early position. Smith moved all in for 765,000 from the small blind, forcing Kenjic out of the pot while Wakil made the call with a covering stack to put Smith at risk.
Dan Smith: A♠K♣
Jamil Wakil: A♥A♦
Smith was drawing dead by the turn on the 8♥6♠10♣3♠8♠ runout and was sent to the rail in brutal fashion while Wakil dragged in a huge pot.
Action folded around to Aexander "Wolfgang Poker" Seibt who limped in from the small blind with A♥2♦. Dan Smith raised to 60,000 from the big blind with 10♠3♦. Seibt used a time extension before moving all in for 315,000 and Smith quickly folded.
