On the tail end of a 6?4?4?8?5? river, Nicholas Teeuwen raised it up to 32,000 and then folded to a shove by Niall Costigan for what appeared to be 72,000. Teeuwen flashed his K?Q? before the flinging them towards the muck.

Szymon Bujok opened to 2,000 from early position and Martin Raus three-bet to 6,700 from the hijack. Rene Majed then put in a four-bet to 17,000 from the small blind that was called by both Bujok and Raus.
Majed fired a 14,000 continuation bet on the 3?3?2? flop that was called by both Bujok and Raus.
On the K? turn action checked around to Raus, who moved all in for 47,500. Majed thought for about one minute before making the call, only for Bujok to raise to 100,000. After another minute in the tank Majed mucked his hand leaving Raus all in and at risk.
Martin Raus: A?J?
Szymon Bujok: K?K?
Raus had made an ambitious bluff with ace-high and was drawing dead against Bujok who had turned a full house. The 5? river was inconsequential and Bujok dragged in a massive pot, putting himself among the chip leaders of the tournament currently while making a major dent in Majed's stack and sending Raus to the rail.

Nikita Kuznetsov flat-called a raise to 2,200 while in the cutoff and Jesse Lonis then three-bet to 10,800 in the small blind. The initial raiser folded and Kuznetsov called, which led them to the Q?9?5? flop.
Lonis continued for 15,200 and earned a reluctant call from Kuznetsov, who then faced the shove by Lonis on the J? turn.
"How much is it?" Kuznetsov asked and the shove of Lonis was for 42,200. Half a minute later, the Russian called and instantly asked "do you have kings?"
Nikita Kuznetsov: A?Q?
Jesse Lonis: K?K?
Lonis indeed held the overpair and the K? river improved him to a set. Both stacks were counted and Kuznetsov was covered by a single big blind.

This hand begun with one of the tablemates explaining to PokerNews that the entire table had agreed to "show one" if they won a hand.
It then started with a 2,000 open by Jessica Teusl from middle position followed by a small blind flat from Davidi Kitai and a big blind defend from Iurii Zuev.
The J?A?Q? flop landed and the action checked to Teusl who continued for 1,500. Both of her opponents called.
The 3? rolled off on the turn and the action checked to Teusl who only took a moment before bombing it to 15,000. Both players found a fold and in the spirit of the game she showed the 8? before the chips were passed her way.

Alexander Stewart was visibly upset when his stack was scooped up by the dealer after he had lost an all-in showdown to Michael Rodrigues. On a board of 8?5?4?2?2?, he could not beat the A?8? of Rodrigues and exclaimed "I asked if it was all of it, don't just scoop it up" before quickly heading out of the tournament area.
Mixed game specialist Rodrigues jumped to around two times the average stack.
