Preflop, Michael Allen raised to 800 and called when Yaman Nakdali three-bet to 2,300. Allen then checked to Nakdali on the 8♠K♦9♥ flop, seeing Nakdali continue for 1,500.
Allen called, and also check-called when Nakdali sized up to 6,500 on the K♠ turn.
The J♥ river saw Nakdali complete his triple barrel with a massive bet of 22,000. Allen did not need long before he called.
Nakdali could only show a bluff with A♣6♠, leaving Allen to take the pot with his baby pair of 3♥3♣.

Christian Altmann and Lander Lijo were heads up on a 6♥4♣8♣5♦ turn. With a massive 22,300 already in the pot, Lijo moved all in for 16,200 from the big blind.
Altmann went deep into the tank, his stack of 14,500 being covered by his opponent. After a few minutes, the clock was called.
Altmann was given a 30-second countdown. With one second remaining, Altmann took a final look at his cards before tossing them into the muck to forfeit the pot.

Alessio Bisci made it 1,200 to go under the gun. Luc Lafontaine was in the next seat over and three-bet to 3,600. Bisci quickly called once the action had folded back to him.
Bisci checked the 9♣5♣8♠ flop over to Lafontaine, who continued for 2,500. Bisci instantly called, after which the 5♥ turn was checked through.
The J♦ river saw Bisci bet 2,700. Lafontaine mucked his cards after some thought, and Bisci was kind enough to show 10♠9♠ for a pair of nines.

Alexandru Danes raised to 600 in the cutoff. It folded to Maxim Panyak in the big blind, who defended. Danes put in an overbet of 1,700 on the 5♠7♠3♦ flop, which Panyak check-raised to 4,000.
Danes then moved all in, and Panyak quickly called off for his stack of 21,100.
Maxim Panyak: 10♠9♠ 
Alexandru Danes: A♥7♦
Panyak's flush was completed on the 3♠ turn, and the 10♦ river did not upgrade Danes to a full house. Panyak was awarded a double-up, while Danes was left with roughly a starting stack.
