Laurent Vauquelin three-bet to 6,700 in the big blind and Antoine Nahas called in early position.
Vauquelin checked the J♥2♥3♠ flop and Nahas bet 4,700. Vauquelin called, and the 6♣ fell on the turn.
He again checked over to Nahas, who bet 9,100 this time. Vauquelin again called, and they both checked the 4♠ river.
Vauquelin showed A♦K♠ for ace-high, and Nahas mucked A♠Q♠ for ace-high with an inferior kicker.
Small blind Raffaele Bellapianta and Severi Palmu under the gun had built a pot of 65,000 when the 4♠A♠2♥6♣4♦ river was dealt. Bellapianta moved all in for a bet of 22,000, sending Palmu into the tank.
After a while, the Finnish player reluctantly called. Bellapianta showed A♥A♣ for top full house, outclassing the 7♥6♥ of Palmu to rake in the double-up.
Four players saw a flop of Q♣9♣6♠ when Atanas Pavlov moved all in for 8,800 under the gun. Sal Al Fakih called in middle position, as did Maksim Paniak on the button.
The turn was the 10♦ and Al Fakih bet 35,000. Paniak only had around 3,000 remaining and called for his last chips, turning over A♣3♣ for a flush draw. Pavlov had A♦Q♦ for top pair, while Al Fakih was ahead with 6♦6♣ for a set.
The 9♥ river improved Al Fakih to a full house, and Pavlov and Paniak were both sent to the rail.
Razvan Scutaru raised to 1,700 in middle position before Luis Faria three-bet to 6,000 in the cutoff. Bruno Bernardino called for his last 4,200 in the big blind, while Scutaru also called.
The flop came 9♥2♥5♥ and Faria bet 7,000. Scutaru quickly folded, leaving Faria heads-up with a chance to bust Bernardino.
Bruno Bernardino: A♥9♣ 
Luis Faria: 7♥6♥
Faria had flopped a flush, while Bernardino had top pair and a flush draw. The A♠ turn gave Bernardino two pair and more outs, but he missed the 7♠ river and was sent to the rail.
The action was caught on a K♣5♠7♦2♦ turn. Oleksii Ievchenko had moved all in at a previous point in the hand, creating a main pot of roughly 30,000.
Meanwhile, Leiqi Chen in the big blind and Joris Ruijs in early position had built a side pot of around 50,000. Chen then checked to Ruijs, who moved all in for 55,000.
Chen gave it some thought before he reluctantly mucked his cards, leaving Ruijs to take the large side pot and show down for the main pot with Ievchenko.
Oleksii Ievchenko: A♠Q♣
Joris Ruijs: 8♥8♦
Ievchenko was delighted to see he was not drawing dead, but the 7♣ river still sealed the fate of his elimination.
Nazar Buhaiov raised to 1,800 in early position and was called by Cedric Boyer on the button and Alexandros Michas in the big blind.
The flop came 6♥4♣K♣ and Buhaiov continued for 2,200. Both opponents called.
The Q♥ turn was checked through, and Michas and Buhaiov also checked the 9♥ river. Boyer then bet 5,000, and only Buhaiov called.
Boyer turned over 9♠9♦ for a rivered set, and Buhaiov mucked. "The river delivers," tablemate Siegfried Friedl said.
"I've never heard that one," Nick Palma added.
At another table, Endrit Geci had bet 800 from the small blind on a flop of 8♠2♦3♦ and Sacha Cohen raised to 3,200 in the cutoff. Geci called to see the 5♦ turn.
Cohen then bet 5,000, and Geci again called. Both players checked the Q♠ river, and Geci showed 6♣6♦ to win the pot.
Aram Zobian raised to 1,600 in the cutoff. Matthias Delbano upped the ante to 6,000 in the cutoff, which received a swift call from Zobian.
Delbano tossed in another 6,000 on the 3♣6♥8♠ flop with a bet, seeing Zobian call after a small tank.
Both players checked through the 2♣ turn, after which the 4♠ was placed as the river. Delbano announced a bet of 8,400, but Zobian was not satisfied and put it all in.
Delbano pondered for a bit before he found a fold, leaving himself with 14 big blinds.
Hamed Sedini raised to 1,600 in middle position and was called by Rudolf Kosa on the button and Danut Chisu in the small blind. Hipolito Carapeta then three-bet to 3,000 in the big blind, and all three opponents called.
The flop came 8♣5♠2♥ and Carapeta bet another 4,000. Only Chisu called to see the 6♣ turn.
Carapeta then bet 7,000, and Chisu again called. The J♠ river was checked down, and Chisu turned over 8♥7♥ for a pair of eights to win the pot.
