Ante: 25,000
The 44 remaining players are on a 15-minute break.
Jean-Marc Chiba opened to 40,000 from early position, but Adrian Ziemichod in the cutoff three-bet to 120,000. The button and the blinds folded, then Chiba four-bet to 320,000. Ziemichod called.
The dealer fanned a flop of 9♠8♣5♥ and Chiba continued for 190,000. Ziemichod called to find the 5♦ turn where Chiba moved all-in.
Ziemichod went into the tank for several minutes, counting his stack several times. Antonio Scalzi eventually called the clock, and at the end of the countdown, Ziemichod called for his last 720,000.
Adrian Ziemichod: 10♣9♣
Jean-Marc Chiba: K♣K♠
Ziemichod called with two pair, but Chiba with kings had a better two pair. Ziemichod stood up and he was eliminated after the Q♥, while Chiba now reaches 2,700,000.
Marco Cipriani jammed for 240,000 from middle position, then Diego Furlanetto to his left moved all-in with a bigger stack and all the other players folded.
Marco Cipriani: J♠10♠
Diego Furlanetto: A♦K♥
Cipriani flopped a pair on J♦4♣4♥ to take the lead, but the A♠ turn gave top pair to Furlanetto, who eliminated Cipriani after the 8♦ river.
