Action was picked up on the turn of 10♠6♠Q♣5♠. Ran Shapira checked from early position before Ewen Trevidy moved all in for 23,500 from middle position. There was roughly 30,000 in the pot. Shapira tanked before calling.
Ewen Trevidy: A♥Q♠
Ran Shapira: K♠Q♥
Trevidy was looking good for the double up until his hopes were dashed by the K♣ river which sealed his fate for this flight.
Manoe Betrix made it 5,000 to go from middle position and Junichi Kato three-bet to 16,000 in the hijack. When it got back to Betrix, he called.
Despite the preflop action, both checked to the river on the J♥3♥4♦9♣9♦ runout where Betrix led out for 21,000, and Kato snap-called.
Betrix quickly flipped A♠4♠ for a pair of fours, but Kato had the winner holding 10♣10♥ to take the pot.
Cards were on their backs between Amir Mansouri and Dominik Gruben with Gruben at risk.
Gruben tabled K♣K♥ and was in good shape against the 9♣9♠ of his opponent.
The full board came Q♠7♦3♣2♥7♥ and Gruben doubled up.
Nivel: 13
Ciegas: 1,000/2,500
Ante: 2,500
Ertan Ates jammed the flop for 32,000 on J♣6♠2♣ and was looked up by Christian Carey.
Ertan Ates: A♣4♣
Christian Carey: K♣J♠
Ates' flush draw was behind Carey's top pair, and while the 10♦ turn was a brick, the 7♣ hit on the river to send Ates the double-up with the nut flush.
Salvatore Camarda was once among the chip leaders on Day 1e, but has dropped down the counts after the latest hand he played.
Camarda opened to 4,000 from under the gun then called a three-bet from Bogdan Tapu in the next seat.
They went to a flop of 3♣5♥Q♦ where Camarda checked and Tapu fired 4,500. Camarda then check-raised to 15,500. and Tapu immediately moved all-in for 50,000. Camarda revealed 7♣7♠ and sounded like he said "Call,", but did confirm it was a fold.
Tapu was kind enough to show K♥K♠ to his table neighbor, showing Camarda that he did make the right fold.
Cards went on their backs on Table 106 with Pavel Binar under the gun at risk for 12,000 against Kerryjane Craigie in the cutoff.
Pavel Binar: A♦4♥
Kerryjane Craigie: A♠J♠
"Oh come on," Craigie said when Binar flopped a pair on 4♦6♣8♣. The 6♥ turn gave him two pair, but the 8♥ river brought a second pair on the board to make them split.
Monir Marie blind shoved from under the gun for 12,500, and received calls from Borgki Biba and Pierre Costa, before Abdelhakim Zoufri three-bet to 35,000.
Biba moved all in for around 55,000, Costa followed suit for around 42,000, and Zoufri called off the difference with the covering stack.
Monir Marie: 8♥5♦
Pierre Costa: A♠J♠
Borgki Biba: 10♦10♠
Abdelhakim Zoufri: 5♠5♥
Biba had the best of it preflop, but Costa went ahead after the Q♦J♦3♥ flop gave him second pair jacks. However the 10♣ rolled off on the turn to give Biba a set, and the 4♦ river was a brick to send him a monster pot.
