For each hand on the money bubble, two minutes will be taken off the clock. In case two players bust on the same table, the chip count will be taken into consideration to determine the bubble boy whereas two eliminations on different tables would split the min cash. There are around 46 minutes remaining on Day 1B.
On the three-way flop of 
, Lukas Tomecki bet 15,000 and Krasimir Yankov called. Georgios Sefertzis moved all in and Tomecki called for 114,500, Yankov quickly folded.
"I have aces," Tomecki announced and Sefertzis asked "black ones?" before tabling his 
for the second nut flush draw. Tomecki however had him crushed with 
and the Greek instantly started chatting in his native language including the word "malaka." The very word can be used among friends ... or in a slightly different meaning. Let's leave it at that.
Sefertzis found no miracle on the 
turn and 
river, and he had to forfeit a decent portion of his stack.
Soon after, he open-shoved out of the small blind and Michael Soyza called in the big blind with the inferior stack of around 110,000.
Michael Soyza: 
Georgios Sefertzis: 
The 
flop gave the Greek the straight and he turned an unbeatable flush with the 
, which made the 
river a formality.
Two tables were still playing, though, and one of them included an all in showdown. Sebastian Kos had jammed with 
into the 
of short stack Timo Vogt and the 
board ensured a split pot.
Right after, the fourth remaining table broke and the money bubble will now be played with three nine-handed tables.

On the three-way flop of , Stefan Haberl was all in and at risk out of the big blind and Reinhold Dona from one seat over got his stack of more than 120,000 into the middle as well. But that was not all yet, as Ondrej Lon had both easily covered and called Dona's shove as well.
Stefan Haberl: 
Reinhold Dona: 
Ondrej Lon: 
Several players from the other tables gathered to see the showdown and Lon struck gold on the turn to improve. A blank river secured the double knockout and Dona was devasted.
"No no no, not like this," he said in table chat.
Just like that, the field was reduced to the last 29 hopefuls and Lon jumped into a commanding lead close to the money bubble.

Michael Soyza:
Ondrej Lon:
Soyza was in need of help and got just that on the flop. The 
turn and 
river brought no threat anymore for the Malaysian and he remained in contention.
The same table no longer features Matous Houzvicek. "Aces versus jacks," he sighed on the rail when he caught the asking eye of the live reporter.
Van Tiep Nguyen was also all in and at risk. He turned a straight with against the of fellow countryman Rene Crha and both traded their stack sizes.
