Antoine Saout opened 24,000 and only Quan Zhou came along from the big blind.
When the K♥J♠10♠ flop hit the felt, Zhou checked to Saout who continued for 17,000. Zhou jammed for his remaining stack of 118,000 and Saout's cards quickly hit the muck.
Following an open raise, Mark Buckley moved all in for 245,000 from the small blind. Sitting on a huge stack, Ram Faravash called in the big blind. The original raiser folded and players flipped their cards.
Mark Buckley: A♦6♥
Ram Faravash: A♣8♣
The board ran out 4♥10♥2♣Q♦J♦. Neither player improved and so Faravash held with his ace high and eight kicker to win the pot. Buckley was sent to the rail and Faravash chipped up to over 1.5 million.
Sergey Lebedev's 10♦10♣ was still face up on the table on the K♣3♣2♠6♦3♥ board, and Kartik Ved was paying off the total of 420,000 with his cards already in the muck.
Ved, who has already earned more than €50,000 in mystery bounties, was left short-stacked.
Nível: 21
Blinds: 6,000/12,000
Ante: 12,000
Julien Sitbon opened 20,000 under the gun, and Lorenzo Cendali called from a couple of spots to his left before Samuel Fournier, and Bruno Bernardino came along in the blinds.
The A♦K♥6♦ flop hit the felt, and once checked to, Sitbon continued for 13,000. Cendali moved all-in for 27,000, and both Fournier and Bernardino snap-folded before Sitbon called.
Lorenzo Cendali: A♠3♥
Julien Sitbon: K♠8♠
Cendali flopped top pair and the 2♣ turn was a safe one, but the 8♥ river gave Sitbon two pair, sending him away from the table.
Jon Vallinas opened to 20,000 from middle position and Mark Buckley moved all in from the big blind for 115,000. Vallinas made the quick call.
Mark Buckley: A♣K♣
Jon Vallinas: A♦10♦
Buckley had his opponent's ace dominated, and flopped the world on K♦J♣6♣, with top pair and the nut flush draw.
Nothing changed on the 9♠5♣ turn and river, handing Buckley a valuable double-up.
Vladimir Heinich opened to 20,000 from early position. Fabrice Bigot reraised to 45,000 to Heinich's direct left. Action folded around and Heinich made the call.
Both players checked the 5♠10♠7♦ flop before Heinich checked the 2♠ turn. Bigot decided to be 30,000 and Heinich called. Both players knuckled the 6♣ river before Heinich tabled K♦10♦ for top pair and Bigot mucked.
Cristian David opened to 21,000 and Sebastien Guinand defended his big blind.
The 5♦7♣K♦ flop was checked through by both players.
On the 7♠ turn Guinand checked and David put out a bet of 23,000, which was enough to get a fold from his opponent.
Fahredin Mustafov opened from middle position to 20,000. Action folded around to Atanas Malinov who defended the small blind.
Malinov checked the 5♦5♥8♥ to Mustafov who bet 20,000. Malinov called. Again Malinov checked the A♥ turn and Mustafov elected to check back. On the J♦ river, Malinov went into the tank before electing to put in the overbet of 135,000. Mustafov snap-called and tabled 10♥7♥ for a flush. Malinov showed K♦Q♦ for king high and Mustafov took the pot.
Ankit Ahuja doubled up with pocket queens when he made the higher end of the straight against Mark Buckley, who had the lower end. Ahuja chipped up to around 650,000 and Mark Buckley was left short with around 120,000.
