Liviu Bartha open-shoved for 285,000 in the cutoff. It folded to Sebastiaan Kruiswijk, who asked for a count and made the call.
Liviu Bartha: A♥3♥
Sebastiaan Kruiswijk: 10♦9♦
Bartha's ace remained good on the K♣8♠8♣ flop, with the A♦ turn locking up the pot for him. The 8♥ river upgraded him to a meaningless full house, doubling him up.
Zoran Stojanovic open-jammed under the gun for 485,000, It folded to Patrick Lynn in the big blind, who took a look at Stojanovic's stack, shrugged, and called.
Zoran Stojanovic: A♥10♠
Patrick Lynn: 4♦3♦
Both players flopped a pair on 3♣10♦K♠. Nothing changed on the 5♥K♥ runout, confirming the double-up for Stojanovic.
Lynn was then made aware that the all-in was for 20 big blinds, not four big blinds like he had thought. Distraught, he saw half his stack disappear to his neighbor, leaving him with about 18 big blinds.
Irish Open Ambassador Chris Dowling raised to 40,000 as first to act. Jay O'Leary called in the cutoff before Nikolay Dimitrov three-bet to 250,000.
Dowling made it 250,000 to go once it folded back to him, getting O'Leary out of the pot.
Dimitrov called, however, and Dowling continued for 100,000 on the K♦10♦Q♦ flop. O'Leary then pushed in his stack of 400,000, which Dowling quickly called.
Jay O'Leary: A♦K♣
Chris Dowling: A♠A♥
Dowling's rockets were up against the pair and flush draw of O'Leary. However, the two chopped the pot instead when the J♠ turn gave both a straight and the 8♠ river changed nothing.
