Three ways to the 9♦7♣6♣10♣ turn, the small blind checked and was then the only one to call a bet worth 11,500 by Santhosh Suvarna in the big blind. On the 3♥ river, the action checked to Suvarna again and he bet another 30,000. This time, a snap fold followed and Suvarna raked in the pot without showdown.
In a battle of the blinds, the board showed 6♥5♦3♠9♣7♠ and Pawel Brzeski checked out of the small blind. Danel Vaitzman bet 30,000 and earned a quick call from Brzeski to table A♣5♠ for a pair of fives only. Brzeski had that beat with the 8♣7♦ for the nine-high straight to win the pot.
The 10♣8♦4♦2♣ turn was already on the felt and Eric Kurtzman was in the big blind and checked to Yannick Capocetti who was on his immediate left as dropped 18,900 into the pot of 38,200.
Kurtzman thought about it for about a minute, and made the call.
The 2♠ paired the board on the river, and Kurtzman checked once more. Capocetti tapped the table, and Kurtzman announced, "Just an ace," as he rolled A♠3♥ face up.
Capocetti mucked his hand as the other players at the table gasped in disbelief.
Diogo Veiga has been steadily building a large stack and just knocked out Senad Cecunjanin to climb above half a million in chips. The latest boost was only for around 20,000 when Cecunjanin got it in with the K♥Q♠ and Veiga had that dominated with the A♥K♣.
Both players hit top pair on the K♦J♦8♣7♥10♥ board and that spelled the end for Cecunjanin.
"I know I am behind but ..." Robert Bickley said on the Q♣10♥5♥A♥6♠ river when he had checked and then paid off a bet worth 26,500 by Andrew Kelsall. The latter tabled the A♦Q♠ for top two pair and it won the pot.
Three-ways to a flop of 6♦J♥4♠, the action checked to Ben Miller in middle position, who made a bet of 3,000. John Canavan folded from the big blind before David Miscikowski called in early position.
Miscikowski then check-called Miller's bet of 8,500 on the 8♥ turn before both checked the 2♠ river.
Miscikowski showed J♣10♣ for top pair and took down the pot as Miller's cards hit the muck.
Christian Roberts raised to 2,500 in middle position and Artur Martirosian called in the hijack. Peter Nigh then three-bet to 12,000 on the button and only Roberts called.
Both players checked the J♠Q♦8♥ flop and Roberts led out for 9,000 on the 4♠ turn. Nigh called.
The K♦ river was again checked through and Nigh turned over A♦K♥ for a rivered pair. Roberts mucked two tens as Nigh took down the pot.
David "Bakes" Baker was heads-up from middle position against the player in the big blind. Baker had a bet in front of him and his opponent check-raised to 7,500. Baker called.
Baker called a 10,000 barrel from his opponent on the K♠ turn and then the big blind checked after the 2♣ completed the board.
Baker fired 28,000 into the middle, which put his opponent deep into the tank. He eventually put in a call and Baker showed A♠2♠ for deuces-full of aces. His opponent mucked after saying, "That's what I was afraid of," and Baker collected the nice pot.
