Hand #36: Axel Hallay raised to 1,000,000 on the button and Robert Mitchell defended the big blind. The flop was {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Mitchell decided to lead out for 1,200,000. Hallay raised to 3,500,000 and Mitchell folded.

Hand #37: Hallay raised to 1,200,000 from the cutoff and Benjamin Underwood defended from a 12 big blind stack. The flop was {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and went check/check. The turn {k-Diamonds} got checked as well. The river was the {k-Spades} and Underwood bet 1,200,000. Hallay gave it up.

Hand #38: Mitchell raised to 1,000,000 on the button and Marco Bognanni bought a flop from the big blind. The dealer spread out {q-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Bognanni check-called 800,000 from Mitchell. The turn {5-Clubs} and saw both players check.

The river was the {6-Spades} and again two checks. Bognanni's {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} high hand was good enough to win.

Hand #39: Bognanni completed the small blind and Hallay checked. On the {6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop Bognanni check-called 500,000 from Hallay. The turn paired the board with the {4-Hearts} and brought two checks. Another pair on the {6-Spades} river brought two more checks, and Bognanni revealed a deceptively played {q-Spades}{q-Hearts} to win.

Hand #40: Mitchell made it 1,200,000 from under the gun and Francois Evard called the big blind. The {j-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Spades} flop saw two checks. Turn {q-Spades}, two more checks. River {2-Hearts}, another two checks. Mitchell won it with {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}.

Hand #35: Bognanni called from the button, Hallay called from his small blind and Evard checked his option in the big blind. After the players checked the {a-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop, Hallay then led out for 1.1 million on the {9-Hearts} turn, getting folds from Evard and Bognanni.

Kamel Mokhammad
Kamel Mokhammad

Hand #5: Kamel Mokhammad open-shoved from the small blind for 4,530,000. Robert Mitchell looked at his cards and snap-called in the big blind.

Kamel Mokhammad: {a-Spades}{7-Spades}
Robert Mitchell: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Hand #6: Francois Evard limped in from the cutoff and Benjamin Underwood checked his option. The flop was {q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Spades} and Evard bet 725,000. Underwood called the bet. The turn brought the {5-Spades} and both players checked.

Underwood checked the {3-Diamonds} on the river and Evard checked as well. He showed the {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs} to win the hand.

Hand #7: Underwood limped in from the small blind and Marco Bognanni checked. Underwood bet 500,000 on the {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop and the Italian called. Underwood kept it up with a 725,000-bet on the {7-Spades} turn and Bognanni called once more,

The river was the {6-Hearts} and both players checked. Underwood won it with the {8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}.

Hand #8: Underwood made it 850,000 to go on the button and Axel Hallay defended. The flop {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades} saw both players check. The turn brought the {q-Diamonds} and once again, no betting action.

Hallay fired for 2,000,000, around pot, on the {q-Spades} river and Underwood called after some thought, but he couldn't defeat Hallay's {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for queens and tens.

Hand #9: Hallay limped the small blind and Evard checked. The flop was {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}{9-Spades} and Hallay won it with a bet of 400,000.

Hand #10: Bognanni made it 900,000 from the cutoff and Mokhammad called the big blind. The flop was {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, where Bognanni took it with a bet of 600,000.
