Nível 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Action was caught on a flop of 3♦4♦5♦, with 30,000 in the pot and Andrei "andreiCoz" Cosmin all in for 39,000 in middle position.

Ran Shahar was into the tank in the big blind, and he eventually called.

Andrei Cosmin: J♥J♠
Ran Shahar: 6♠4♠

The 7♥ landed on the turn, and Shahar punched the table to celebrate his straight, which left Cosmin drawing dead.

"Nice hand," Cosmin said on the river 5♠, before leaving the table.

Quads for Stefan

Nível 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Action back to him, Stefan shoved for 77,000. Kateinas went into the tank, but eventually called.

Gheorghe Stefan: J♦J♥
Ioannis Kateinas: A♥K♣

Stefan had to win this flip to stay in the tournament. It happened to be quite easy, because the board 5♦2♣J♠J♣Q♥ gave him quads to secure a double up.

Royal Flush for Matei

Nível 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Christopher Heidelbacher: A♦K♠
Alexandru Matei: K♣Q♣

Matei had reasons to smile as he hit the best possible hand, a royal flush, on a board of J♣K♥10♣Q♦A♣. Thanks to this hand, he is now one of the chip leaders with 152,000 chips.

Barta Takes One

Nível 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The player under the gun opened to 2,000, then Dumitru Barta in middle position, Ionut Voinea in the small blind and Maxence Carbonneaux in the big blind called.

But on the flop 4♦8♦J♣, only the under the gun player and Barta agreed on a bet of 2,500, before they both checked the turn A♦.

On the river K♣, Barta bet 6,500 and scooped the pot, as his opponent checked-folded.

Ioannis Kateinas opened to 2,600 from under the gun, then Andreia Coman to his left shoved for 23,800. In middle position, Catalin Leahu asked for the count and called. All the other players folded, including Kateinas.

Andreia Coman: 8♥8♣
Catalin Leahu: A♣Q♦

Leah didn't wait to hit two pair on A♠Q♥9♣5♣7♥, leaving Coman with no chance.

As she already reentered the tournament today, Coman is definitely eliminated from Day 1b and will have to play on Day 2c or 1d to try to qualify for Day 2.
