Abdullah Alajmi opened to 7,500 under the gun, and action folded to Vladimir Korzinin in the big blind, who reached for chips and produced a three-bet to 24,000.
Alajmi quickly produced the four-bet jam to 46,000 and, after some thought, Korzinin made the call with the covering stack, saying "I want to see."
Abdullah Alajmi: 9♣6♣
Vladimir Korzinin: J♥J♦
Korzinin chuckled when he saw his opponent's cards, exclaiming "That's my age!" Alajmi's nine-high needed some help from the board versus Korzinin's pocket jacks, but he was drawing dead by the turn on the A♣10♠3♦Q♥2♦ runout.

Marius Kudzmanas opened to 3,500 from early position, and was called by Elias Gutierrez on the button and the player in the big blind.
The A♥4♥3♦ flop was checked through. The 8♥ rolled off on the turn, and Kudzmanas fired out a bet of 4,000, which only Gutierrez called.
The 8♠ river completed the board, and Kudzmanas slid out a bet of 20,000. Gutierrez made the quick call, but was shown the bad news when Kudzmanas rolled K♥J♥ for the turned nut flush.

Aliaksei Boika opened to 4,000 from the cutoff, and was faced with a three-bet to 18,000 from Patrick Leonard in the big blind. After some thought, Boika called.
The 10♠9♥5♣ flop was checked through. On the 8♠ turn, Leonard check-called versus a bet of 10,000 from Boika.
The J♣ river completed the board, bringing one-card straight possibilities, and both players elected to check their option.
Leonard showed A♠8♦ for a pair of eights, but was pipped by Boika's K♦9♦ for a pair of nines.

[Removed:553] opened to 2,500 from the cutoff and Belarmino De Souza defended his big blind.
On the J♠9♠6♣ flop, De Souza check-called a bet of 2,000 from Simon.
The Q♦ rolled off on the turn and De Sousa checked once more. Simon fired out a bet of 15,000 and, after some thought, De Sousa check-raised to 26,000, forcing Simon to unceremoniously dump his hand into the muck.
