Sam Greenwood opened 36,000 under the gun, and Stephen Chidwick played for more from the cutoff, three-betting to 115,000. The action quickly folded back to Greenwood and he made the call.
The 6♦5♦3♣ flop received checks from both players, and when the Q♥ hit the turn, Greenwood checked once more. Chidwick fired a bet of 200,000 across the line, and Greenwood's cards instantly flung into the muck.
Chris Brewer opened from the hijack to 32,000. Action folded to Duco ten Haven who defended the big blind.
The 10♦J♥5♠ flop was checked by Ten Haven. Brewer then fired a bet of 21,000 which Ten Haven called. The 2♦ turn was checked around as was the 2♠ river. Brewer tabled A♥8♦ which beat Ten Haven's missed straight draw of 9♥8♠.
Action was picked up on the river of 2♦5♣9♥4♠K♠. Chris Brewer was all in against Aleksejs Ponakovs. The cards were on their backs. Brewer made a pair of kings with K♥Q♦ which bested Ponakovs A♣J♣ to receive a full double up.
Laszlo Bujtas opened 32,000 in the cutoff and only Rui Neves Ferreira called on the button.
The dealer spread a flop of J♣7♦5♣, and Bujtas check-called a bet of 27,000.
When the 4♠ hit the turn, Bujtas checked again, and Ferreira fired 65,000 into the middle. Bujtas responded with a check-raise all-in for 198,000 and Ferreira mucked his hand.

Duco ten Haven opened 28,000 on the button, and Aleksejs Ponakovs defended the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of 10♠9♦4♣, and Ponakovs check-raised a bet of 20,000 to 60,000. Ten Haven responded with a three-bet to 130,000, putting Ponakovs in the tank. After a minute, he made the call.
The 7♠ fell on the turn, and Ponakovs checked before Ten Haven dropped a stack of greens across the line for a bet of 500,000. Ponakovs snap-called his remaining 301,000 and both hands were tabled.
Aleksejs Ponakovs: J♥8♠
Duca Ten Haven: K♥10♦
Ponakovs turned a straight, leaving Ten Haven drawing dead and the A♠ river was just a formality.
All of the chips went in the middle before the flop and Laszlo Bujtas was at risk for his last 125,000 against Daniel Dvoress.
Laszlo Bujtas: J♣9♣
Daniel Dvoress: A♣K♦
The K♠6♣5♦ flop left Bujtas drawing thin, but the 7♣ turn, and 10♣ river gave him a flush to double.
