Riise led out with a bet of 2,500 on the turn and Karlsen raised to 7,500. Isbeck folded and Riise called to see the 8♥ on the river. Riise led out again with a bet of 4,000 and Karlsen countered with a raise to 20,000. Riise wasted little time before dumping his cards in the muck and Karlsen took over the chip lead.
Lincoln Lau raised it up to 2,500 on the button and was called by both of the blinds. The flop came Q♣5♦4♠ and the action checked around to the 8♦ on the turn.

Three players headed to a flop of K♣J♠2♣ and the action checked around to the 5♠ on the turn. John Arne Riise was the first to take a stab at the pot with a bet of 3,000. Feliks Saakyan raised to 9,000 on the button which got the big blind to fold but Riise still called.
The 5♣ paired the board on the river and Riise led out with a bet of 16,000. Saakyan went into the tank for over a minute before flicking in a chip to call. Riise knuckled the table as he showed A♥10♥ for air while Saakyan held Q♥J♥ for two pair to win the pot.
Simon Isbeck raised to 2,000 from the hijack and John Arne Riise called from the small blind. Drea Karlsen three-bet to 8,000 from the big blind and Isbeck four-bet shoved all in for 21,400. Riise quickly folded and Karlsen called as the cards went on their backs.
Simon Isbeck: A♥K♦
Drea Karlsen: 8♠8♥
The flop of Q♥5♠2♣ left Karlsen in the lead with the lone pair. However, the K♥ on the turn vaulted Isbeck to the lead and the 9♣ on the river secured him the double up.

The players are now going on an extended 30-minute break to give the players a chance to grab a bite to eat.
Lukas Robinson raised to 2,000 from under the gun and Alberto Murilo three-bet to 6,200 on the button. Pedro Oliveira called from the small blind and Robinson got out of the way.
The flop came A♥10♦2♦ and Oliveira checked to Murilo who continued with a bet of 3,500. Oliveira check-raised to 7,200 and Murilo quickly called.
The 7♥ landed on the turn and Oliveira ripped all in for his last 12,100 chips. Murilo gave it some thought but decided to send his cards to the muck.
