Mark Attard opened to 2,500 from middle position, and called a three-bet to 7,500 from Mats Karlsson on the button.
Attard check-called a bet of 5,000 from Karlsson on the A♠K♦4♣ flop, leading to the 6♣ turn.
Action was quickly checked through to the 2♥ river, where Attard led out with a bet of 5,000, leading to a swift fold from Karlsson.
Alessandro De Marzi opened to 2,400 from the cutoff, and was met with a three-bet to 7,500 from Marcus Larsson in the small blind. Action back to De Marzi, who called.
The Q♠J♣8♦ flop was checked to the 10♦ turn, where Larsson check-called a bet of 10,000 from De Marzi.
The K♦ river completed the board, and Larsson checked once more. De Marzi slid out a bet of 20,000, and after around two minutes of thought, Larsson called.
De Marzi's cards hit the muck as soon as he did so, but Larsson showed K♣Q♦ for two pair anyway.

On the 9♣6♣5♥ flop, Buttigieg check-called a bet of 1,500 from Nilsson.
Buttigieg led out with a bet of 2,500 on the 10♥ turn, which failed to shake off Nilsson.
The 4♥ hit on the river, and Buttigieg led out once more with a bet of 5,000. Nilsson didn't appear to like it but made the call, and his J♣10♣ was good versus Buttigieg's A♦9♠.

Davide Iannaco raised to 2,600 from the small blind, and Dumitru Straistari made the call.
The J♠8♥4♥ flop was checked to the 9♣ turn, where Iannaco led out with a bet of 3,000, which failed to shake off Straistari.
The 8♣ hit on the river and Iannaco checked once more. Straistari quickly fired out a bet of 6,200, just over half of Iannaco's stack, and he made a somewhat crying call.
He was shown the bad news when Straistari tabled Q♥10♦ for the turned queen-high straight, and Iannaco mucked.
A player opened to 2,000, and received a call, before Lukas Robinson three-bet to 7,500 from the small blind. Yucel Kolcubasi was in the big blind and he four-bet jammed to 17,000, forcing the other two players out. Robinson made a quick call.
Yucel Kolcubasi: 10♣10♠ 
Lukas Robinson: A♣K♦
It was a fair fight, and Kolcubasi managed to dodge flush outs on the turn in addition to the overcards across the 6♦4♦2♥5♦Q♥ runout.
WSOP Online bracelet winner Jonathan Therme is in the field and has got off to a hot start.
