Lavi Liraz opened to 6,500 from early position and Ioannis Koulopoulos called from the hijack. In the small blind, Maria Ho jammed for her remaining 40,500. Liraz thought for a while before he let it go, then Koulopoulos snap-called.

Ioannis Koulopoulos: J♠J♣
Ho found herself in bad shape against the jacks of Koulopoulos and it stayed that way on the 6♠3♦3♣A♦8♠ runout as Ho hit the rail.

Having unfortunately bubbled Day 1e, Uri Gilboa was looking for redemption as he found himself in another pivotal hand. Ramiro Garcia raised under the gun to 5,500, Gilboa called next to act, and Christianus Lovrencevic came along in the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of J♠J♦5♠, and Lovrencevic check-folded to a continuation bet of 7,500 from Garcia while Gilboa made the call.
The Q♠ turn was checked through to see the 6♠ on the river, where Garcia led for 16,500. Gilboa gave it a few moments of thought while staring at the board, and eventually tossed in the call.
Garcia rolled A♠A♦ for a flush, and Gilboa flashed the J♥ before surrendering his other card.

Dare2Stream and 2023 EPT Cyprus Main Event winner [Removed:553] moved all in for 18,000 from middle position and was called by Ryhor Karapanau from the cutoff.
[Removed:553]: A♦9♠
Ryhor Karapanau: 10♥10♦
Simon had three outs and picked up more equity after the 5♦4♣2♥ flop gave him a gutshot to the wheel. The 2♦ turn paired the board, offering no help to Simon. The Q♦ river confirmed his exit and Simon wished the table good luck before heading out.
After EPT Barcelona, the EPT will be returning to Cyprus after the massive success of the inaugural event in 2023.
The 2024 version will be the same, hosted at the mesmerizing five-star Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa from October 9-20.

The 8♣ rolled off on the turn to complete a potential flush, and Feddag slowed down, check-calling a bet of 11,000 from his opponent.

Mario Trattou opened 7,000 under the gun and Ridvan Kilincaslan shoved his last 17,500 next to act. The action folded back around to Trattou who quickly made the call.
Ridvan Kilincaslan: Q♦8♦
Mario Trattou: K♦Q♣
Kilincaslan was dominated and the A♣7♣4♠ flop gave him little hope. The 2♥ on the turn prompted him to stand up, saying, "Good luck, everyone." However, the 8♣ river was exactly what he needed, pairing his eight to score the double.

Paul Leckey opened to 5,000 in early position and was faced with a three-bet jam by Lorenc Boci in the small blind to 39,500.
Eirik Lund Presterud was in the big blind and moved all in with a stack covering both players. Leckey thought things through momentarily, before moving his stack totaling around 60,000 into the middle.
Lorenc Boci: Q♥Q♠
Paul Leckey: K♣K♠
Eirik Lund Presterud: A♣K♦
Leckey was in great shape with his pocket kings, while Boci looked pretty disgusted with the spot he found himself in.
The 7♦5♥4♦ flop didn't alter matters, but the 6♦ turn gave Lund Presterud the diamond draw and also brought chop possibilities to reduce Leckey's equity.
As the players waited for the river, Lund Presterud rubbed his king of diamonds, almost pointing out to his opponents that he'd picked up the draw.
The A♠ then rolled off on the river, sending Lund Presterud the pot with his pair of aces and sending his two unfortunate opponents to the exit.
