Salvatore Camarda and Andriy Lyubovetskiy were heads-up on a board of K♥8♠10♣2♠10♠ with around 100,000 in the pot when Salvatore Camarda moved all in from the big blind.
Lyubovetskiy was in the cutoff and burned a few time banks before calling for his last 75,000. Camarda then turned over 10♥7♣ for trip tens and Lyubovetskiy sent A♥Q♣ into the muck before heading for the rail.
Victor Castanedo opened to 16,000 from early position and was met with a three-bet to 48,000 by Francisco Benitez on the button.
Action folded back to Castanedo, who thought for a moment before moving all in for around 220,000. Benitez's cards were in the muck almost before Castanedo had finished moving his chips forward.
Poker is a game where an online qualifier can sit on equal footing with a true legend of the game. That's the experience Kevinas Korsakas has had so far today, as he's sat right next to Adrian Mateos.
The two tangled in the last pot where Mateos bet 32,000 from the button on a board of J♣9♠A♦Q♣. Korsakas called in the small blind and the 4♦ fell on the river.
Mateos then bet 93,000, leaving just one 1,000 chip behind, and Korsakas again called. Mateos turned over A♥A♣ for top set and the Power Path qualifier sent his cards into the muck.
Enrico Camosci opened to 16,000 from middle position and was called by Elias Gutierrez from the big blind.
Gutierrez check-raised to 45,000 over a bet of 14,000 on the Q♥8♣5♦ flop and was called.
Gutierrez slowed down and checked the 7♠ turn. Camosci fired out another 52,000 and Gutierrez stuck around.
Gutierrez checked once more on the 10♦ river and Camosci jammed for 136,000. After using up a time bank, Gutierrez flicked in a calling chip.
Camosci tabled Q♠9♠ for top pair and took in the pot as Gutierrez hero-called with 9♣7♣.
Vladyslav Martynenko opened to 16,000 in early position and Christophe Morbee called in the next seat. Action folded to Gerard Carbo on the button, who pondered the spot for a moment before shipping his 193,000 into the middle.
Martynenko took some time to release his hand, and Morbee quickly followed suit.
Daniel Oterhals opened to 16,000 from middle position and received calls from Victor Castanedo on the button and Danut Chisu in the small blind before Demosthenes Kiriopoulos shoved for roughly 275,000 from the big blind. Oterhals made the call with a covering stack and the other two players got out of the way leaving Kiriopoulos at risk.
Demosthenes Kiriopoulos: A♠J♥ 
Daniel Oterhals: A♥Q♦
The board ran out Q♣5♣A♣6♦8♥ giving Oterhals aces up to send Kiriopoulos to the rail and drag in a massive pot.
Chisu was also eliminated from this table a couple hands later.
Oliver Bosch moved all in for around 60,000 from the big blind and Cedric Schwaederle put him at risk from the cutoff.
Oliver Bosch: A♠J♣
Cedric Schwaederle: Q♥Q♠
The J♥3♥10♦ flop gave Bosch a pair, but he improved no further on the K♦ turn or 4♦ river as Schwaederle took the pot to send Bosch to the rail.
Danilo Velasevic opened to 17,000 from early position and Silviu Baltateanu defended his big blind.
On the 5♦J♣2♥ flop, Baltateanu check-called versus a bet of 13,000 from Velasevic.
On the 9♦ turn, Baltateanu led out with a bet of 25,000 but was sent into the tank when Velasevic responded with a raise to 110,000. Baltateanu disposed of a time bank before mucking his hand.
Jovan Kenjic raised to 16,000 in the cutoff, Igaal Hanouna moved all in for 65,000 on the button, and Kenjic called.
Igaal Hanouna: A♥J♥
Jovan Kenjic: Q♦J♠
Hanouna hit top pair on the A♠K♠2♠ flop, but the 7♠ turn gave Kenjic a flush. Hanouna was already drawing dead by the 6♥ river and was eliminated.
Start-of-day chip leader Eros Calderone was also recently eliminated.
Dario De Paz moved all in for 139,000 on the button and Amaury Mamou-Mani called in the small blind.
Dario De Paz: K♠Q♣
Amaury Mamou-Mani: A♠10♦
The flop came Q♦6♣4♣ and De Paz took the lead with a pair of queens. The rest of the board came 7♣6♦ and De Paz doubled up.
