Halil Tasyurek opened from under the gun and Ehsan Amiri called from the small blind. Tom Verbruggen then squeezed to 13,500 from the big blind, which both Tasyurek and Amiri called.
The trio saw a flop of K♦9♥4♥ where Amiri checked and Verbruggen bet 8,000. Tasyurek got out of the way, but Amiri stuck around.
When the A♠ dropped on the turn, Amiri checked once again, then folded to the 27,000-chip bet from Verbruggen.

Adlan Vikayev made it 3,500 to go from under the gun, and Stanislaw Grodek fired back with a three-bet to 10,000 from the hijack. Fredrico Senno wasn’t about to fold his hand quietly, putting in a four-bet to 25,000 from the button. Vikayev, with all guns blazing, then five-bet to a hefty 150,000. Grodek quickly got out of the way with 55,000 behind, but Senno wasn’t backing down and shoved for just over 150,000. Vikayev shrugged and made the call.
Fredrico Senno: J♠J♦
Adlan Vikayev: A♦K♠
Senno’s pocket jacks were holding strong, but he still needed to dodge plenty of outs to avoid getting bucked off this hand. The 2♥4♦Q♦ flop kept him ahead, though the 3♣ on the turn gave Vikayev a wheel draw, making any five good for a straight.
The river was the K♦, and just like that, Vikayev roped in a bigger pair to scoop the biggest pot of the day so far, sending Senno packing.

Arian Kashani opened the cutoff to 3,500 and Azamat Tulepbergenov made it 10,000 from the button. Rudolf Fourie was in the small blind and cold-called, then Kashani four-bet to 33,000. Tulepbergenov folded, but Fourie called.
The flop came 10♠3♣Q♠ and Fourie check-called a bet of 15,500 from Kashani to the 7♠ turn, which went check-check.
A 2♥ dropped on the river and Fourie fired out a bet of 20,000, then after some consideration, Kashani shoved. Fourie had around 75,000 behind, but didn't want to invest another dime into the pocket as he quickly folded, earning Kashani the pot.

Noja then flipped K♥J♠ for a straight, and Murcia flashed the 10♥ before he mucked.
