Around 160,000 was in the middle in a hand between Tom Vogelsang in early position and Aleksejs Ponakovs in the big blind, with the flop reading K♥Q♠4♦.
Ponakovs checked, and Vogelsang fired out a bet of 55,000. Ponakovs pondered the spot, and then reached for chips to produce a check-raise to 190,000. Vogelsang called.
The 3♥ hit on the turn, and after a period of deliberation, Ponakovs check-folded versus a bet of 110,000 from Vogelsang.

Vladimir Korzinin made it 95,000 to go in early position. Yulian Bogdanov called on the button, Alexander Zubov did so in the small blind, and Santhosh Suvarna defended his big blind.
The action checked to Korzinin on the 7♦4♣10♥ flop, and he made a very small bet of 50,000. Zubov was the only caller as Bogdanov and Suvarna got out of the way.
Korzinin sized up slightly on the 9♥ turn. He put in 75,000, which was again check-called by Zubov. Both players then checked through the K♥ river.
Zubov tabled 8♥8♣ for a pair of eights, but Korzinin won the pot with K♣9♣ for two pair.

The action went to Valeriy Fokin in the hijack. He tanked for roughly a minute and a half before committing his stack of 160,000 to the middle. Aleksejs Ponakovs was the only caller, in the small blind, and the pair showed their cards.
Valeriy Fokin: Q♣J♦
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A♠2♠
Fokin flopped extra outs on K♦10♦4♥, but he could make neither a straight nor pair his hole cards on the K♠ turn and 8♥ river, resulting in his elimination in ninth.

Yulian Bogdanov: A♦8♣
The 4♥Q♣4♦ flop brought some chop outs, but the 3♦5♦ runout did not change anything. Suvarna doubled up with ace-high to a stack of 18 big blinds.
