Nuno Correia: K?Q?
Leonid Sidelkovskiy: A?A?
Correia had run into aces and the A?9?9? flop left him drawing to only a running straight flush. The 3? turn and 2? river were bricks and Correia's deep run came to an end at the hands of Sidelkovskiy.

Nikolay Ponomarev moved all in from the hijack for 800,000 and Bernard Boutboul reshoved from the button with a covering stack, folding out all other players to leave Ponomarev at risk.
Nikolay Ponomarev: A?10?
Bernard Boutboul: A?K?
Boutboul was well ahead with a bigger ace and remained so on the Q?9?4?K?9? runout to send Ponomarev to the rail and take down a healthy pot.

Yunsheng Sun opened to 125,000 from the cutoff before it folded to Oleg Netaliev in the small blind who moved all in for 910,000. It folded back to Sun who sat in the tank for almost four minutes before eventually flicking in a call to put Netaliev at risk.
The cards hit their backs.
Oleg Netaliev: A?J?
Yunsheng Sun: 9?9?
It was a standard flip until the dealer fanned out the A?6?A? flop and Netaliev rocketed into the lead. Then out of nowhere the 9? drilled the turn and Sun moved into a commanding lead. Netaliev still had some outs going to the river but the 2? was not one of them.
Netaliev hit the rail at the hands of Sun who held about a sixth of the chips in play with just 16 players remaining.

Bernard Boutboul opened to 130,000 from under the gun and Martynas Vitkauskas called from the button.
The flop came 6?4?4? and Boutboul fired a 210,000 continuation bet that was called by Vitkauskas.
Boutboul bet again for 300,000 on the 5? turn and once again Vitkauskas made the call.
Both players checked the J? river. Vitkauskas tabled A?J? and Boutboul's hand hit the muck.

Andrei Daniliuk opened from early position to 125,000 before the action folded to Tahsin Cankurtaranli in the cutoff. After a bit of thought he moved all in for 825,000. The rest of the players folded back to Daniliuk who snap called and the cards hit their backs.
Tahsin Cankurtaranli: A?J?
Andrei Daniliuk: K?K?
The full board ran out 9?3?J?2?5? and although Cankurtaranli hit a pair it was not enough to defeat the cowboys of Daniliuk.

Ivan Govorov: A?Q?
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: 9?9?
Govorov made second pair on the K?Q?4? flop to take the lead, leaving Skhulukhiya drawing to two outs. The 8? turn and 3? river were bricks and Govorov secured a massive double up at Skhulukhiya's expense.
