After a raise by the player in under the gun, Vicente Deldago called on the button and Fahd Bennani Smires defended the big blind. On the flop, the action checked to Delgado and he bet 75,000, which Bennani Smires then check-raised to 225,000. The player under the gun folded and Delgado called.
The turn was checked and Bennani Smires then shoved the river. It was a bad timing for the Moroccan to bluff with , as Delgado had flopped a set and rivered a full house with to double up.
Martin Kabrhel is no longer on the table full of big names and Christian Nilles as well as Stefan Schillhabel also lost most of their chips, while Igor Kurganov more than doubled.
And then there was Stephen Chidwick, who just took a big pot off Dimitar Yosifov to build his stack. Yosifov limped in and Chidwick raised to 105,000 in the bib blind, which Yosifov called. On the flop, both checked and the fell on the turn. Yosifov led for 150,000 and was called before firing another 225,000 on the river.
Chidwick moved all in and Yosifov folded with around 600,000 behind.
Oscar Serradell raised it up to 60,000 preflop and called when Norway's Johnny Lodden shipped it in for 440,000 total. Serradell held the which statistically speaking was barely edging out the of Johnny Lodden.
The flop made Serradell an even bigger favorite, and by the turn he had so many outs, that it was still virtually a coinflip with just one card to come.
The river completed the flush for Serradell, and Lodden made his way out of the Marquee, that still hosts a number of the 220 remaining players.
Paraskevas Tsokaridis opened to 80,000 and Daniel Carter called from two seats over on the button. On the flop, Tsokaridis continued for 120,000 and Carter called before the turn was checked to the Brit. Carter now made it 320,000 to go and received the call before the river saw another check and a hefty bet worth 700,000 by Carter.
Tsokaridis eventually called and then tapped the table in defeat when Carter flashed for a set as winning hand.
Jack Hardcastle on the same table is also thriving and Dylan Honeyman arrived at his new table and was straight in the big blind. Mustapha Kanit raised to 85,000 and was called two ways. Honeyman then three-bet to 340,000 and that shut down all further action.
A raising war resulted in a big clash between Robert Tinnion and Carlos Sanchez Diaz with the former all in and at risk for more than 2.5m and with the worse hand.
Tinnion had and Sanchez Diaz turned over to see the board run out . The Spaniard is among the big stacks and trails Paul Carr by just a few big blinds.
Nicholas Fellone limped from the hijack, and Masud "Doc" Prodhan raised it up from the cutoff. The blinds quickly got out of the way, and back on Fellone, he put Prodhan to the ultimate test. Prodhan made the call for 901,000 total.
Nicholas Fellone:
Masud Prodhan:
The cheeky limp-jam from Fellone had gotten him his money in very well against Prodhan, but the flop changed the good outlook, as it came . The turn and the river did not improve Fellone, who cut out the chips of his potent stack and handed them over to his opponent.
Several big names including Steve O'Dwyer saw their stack sizes fluctuate quite a lot and and they are below or just above the average with less than 200 players remaining.
Igor Kurganov was spotted raising to 100,000 and Tamer Kamel called on the button. On the flop the duo checked and Kurganov's bet on the turn for 240,000 won the pot uncontested.
