Level 4 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Multi-way to a flop of 6♣4♥6♠, with about 70,000 in the middle, Marian Virlanuta fired a bet of 45,000 from early position. The action then folded to Samuel Ju under the gun, who called.

The 5♦ turn saw Virlanuta shove all in for 121,500 after a second check from Ju. Ju tossed in one time bank before he folded and forfeited the pot.

"Do you want to see?" Virlanuta asked Ju, who responded affirmatively. Virlanuta then showed K♣Q♦ for a stone-cold bluff with king-high, much to the ammusement of the table.

Level 4 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Hakim Zoufri stuck his last 30,000 into the middle from under the fun with only Keith Hoang making the call from the big blind to put him at risk.

Hakim Zoufri: K♥10♣ All in
Keith Hoang: K♦Q♥

Zoufri was dominated by Hoang and looked likely to be headed for an early shower. However, the board ran out 9♥6♥3♦9♣3♣, resulting in a chop pot, and Zoufri stayed alive in the tournament.

Level 3 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Dumitru Pora raised to 5,000 in middle position, being called by the players in the cutoff and on the button. Aliaksandr Hirs then three-bet to 30,000 from the small blind, which Pora called. The cutoff also called while the button mucked his hand.

The K♣10♣10♠ flop checked through to the Q♥ turn, where Hirs fired a bet of 55,000. Pora flicked in a call, prompting the cutoff to get out of the way. Hirs then took some time before moving all in for 101,000 on the J♦ river.

Pora snap-called and tabled 10♥10♦ for quad tens. Hirs' A♠8♥ were added to the muck, and he swiftly departed from the table.

A massive pot of 165,000 had been brewed between a player in the cutoff and Leanid Bachkou on the button. The river arrived the 8♣J♠10♣5♣8♠, and the cutoff check-called an all-in bet of 135,000 from Bachkou.

Bachkou turned over J♥J♦ for a full house, besting the Q♥Q♦ of his opponent and raking in the massive pot.

When it folded to Cassandra Yong in the cutoff, she came in with a min-raise to 4,000. Only Hassanin Hashim made the call from the big blind.

Both players were happy to check through the 2♣6♥9♠ flop to see the 10♣ hit the turn. Hashim led out for 6,000, and Yong quickly called.

Hashim checked the A♥ river, allowing Yong to throw out a bet of 15,000. This was enough to force Hashim to fold, and she dragged in the pot.

Level 3 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Alessio Isaia opened from early position with only Bugra Ozyurt calling from the button.

When the dealer spread out a flop of K♠K♣J♣, Isaia slid out a continuation-bet of 5,000. Ozyurt pondered briefly before making the call.

The dealer burned a card to reveal the 4♥ turn. Isaia fired a second barrel of 19,000, which was enough to force Ozyurt to fold.

Yuhang Chen made a raise to 10,000 in the cutoff and was met with a three-bet to 41,500 by Abdullah Alajmi in the big blind.

Alajmi tabled A♣K♣ for a straight to the ace, taking down the pot when Chen nodded his head and mucked his cards.

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Arriving at the table, the flop showed 2♦10♦8♥ and Mazen Halabi had gotten the rest of his short-stack into the middle. Ilya Ubilava called to put him at risk, and the cards were flipped over.

Mazen Halabi: 7♦4♦ All in
Ilya Ubilava: Q♦Q♣

Halabi was behind Ubilava's pocket queens, but he did have a flush draw. However, the rest of the board ran out 3♠6♥ and Halabai was one of the early eliminations of the day.
