Leonard Maue check-raised a Q♦J♥3♦ flop from 15,000 to 90,000 when up against Orpen Kisacikoglu before both players then checked down the 7♣ turn and 7♠ river. Maue revealed his 5♥3♥ and that won the pot, as Kisacikoglu reluctantly tossed his cards into the muck.
After doubling up a couple of hands earlier, Gab Yong Kim made a raise to 21,000 from the hijack. Ioannis Angelou-Konstas then three-bet to 70,000 from the cutoff and the action folded back to Kim, who called.
The flop of 4♠7♣A♥ saw Kim check and Angelou-Konstas bet 23,000 chips. Kim stuck around with a call and the 3♦ turn was dealt. Kim checked again and Angelou-Konstas kept up the pressure by betting 60,000.
Kim then stuck in a raise to 140,000, more than half his remaining chips. Angelou-Konstas mulled it over before putting in the call. On the 5♦ river, Kim stuck in the rest of his chips, amounting to 127,000. Angelou-Konstas asked for a count but eventually folded after thinking the situation over for a bit.
Kim raked in the chips and was back to more than three-quarters of a starting stack.
Heads-up to the A♥Q♥3♦ flop, Stephen Chidwick check-called a bet of 20,000 by Teun Mulder and checked again the 4♣ turn. Mulder made it 125,000 to go for Chidwick to call and then check the 10♣ river.
This time, Mulder sized up to 400,000 and Chidwick folded.
Orpen Kisacikoglu and Timothy Adams had created a 175,000 pot when the turn was dealt. The board read 4♠A♦3♠5♣ and Adams bet 32,000 from the big blind. Adams sat in the under-the-gun position and made the call.
The 9♦ river then saw Adams downsize to 21,000. Kisacikoglu spent one time bank extension before raising to 150,000, and this garnered a fold from his opponent, awarding him the pot.
Santhosh Suvarna checked the heads-up turn of Q♥J♣8♠4♦ and then faced a bet worth 75,000 by Leonard Maue. What followed was the shove by Suvarna for around 240,000 and Maue instantly called.
Santhosh Suvarna: K♦10♠
Leonard Maue: 4♥4♣
The turned set of fours left Suvarna on the ropes as he needed an ace or nine to survive. Neither came with the 7♠ river and that sent Suvarna to the rail.
Nível: 8
Blinds: 5,000/10,000
Ante: 10,000
Stephen Chidwick was involved in a pot with Nacho Barbero. Barbero checked from the big blind on a board of 2♣A♦K♠Q♠ and Chidwick put a 150,000 bet in the pot of 160,000. Barbero made the call and the 4♠ river completed the board.
Chidwick checked behind once Barbero had done so first, and Barbero tabled A♥7♠ for top pair. Chidwick hat that beat with his A♣2♠ for two pair, and raked in the sizable pot.
One hand later, Gab Yong Kim raised from middle position and Chidwick three-bet to 50,000. The action folded back to Kim, who called. The flop was then dealt Q♣J♠5♥ and Kim check-folded to a continuation-bet of Chidwick, leaving himself as the shortest stack in the tournament.
Joining the action on the 10♠5♦3♦7♥ turn with around 120,000 in the middle, Stephen Chidwick checked and subsequently called a bet worth 135,000 by Gab Yong Kim.
Chidwick checked again the J♠ on the river and Kim reluctantly knuckled it back. The Brit tabled his 9♦8♦ that went from flush draw to open-ender to nut straight, and Kim could all but shake his head.
The board read 9♠3♦3♠10♣ when the action was caught, and the pot amounted to 60,000 chips. Felipe Ketzer checked from middle position and was faced with an over-bet of 75,000 from Ben Heath in the hijack. Ketzer called and the 7♦ river completed the board.
Ketzer checked again and Heath followed suit after using one time bank extension. Ketzer confidently tabled his A♥10♦ for top pair and it was indeed enough to rake in the pot as Heath's cards hit the muck.
With the additions of Ioannis Angelou-Konstas and Fahredin Mustafov, the field has reached 18 players and as many of them still have chips at their disposal. A third table has opened as the action now continues with six players on each table.
