Andrei Stoenescu opened to 1,000 in early position and Romain Lewis called on the button before Frederic Normand upped the price with a three-bet in the big blind. Stoenescu called and Lewis folded.
Normand continued for 2,500 on the 2♥K♠Q♠ flop and Stoenescu called. Normand sized up to 4,500 on the 3♦ turn and Stoenescu again called.
Normand slowed down with a check on the 3♦ river and Stoenescu bet 20,000 to put Normand to the test for his remaining stack of around 13,000. Normand called.
Stoenescu showed an overpair with A♦A♠ and it was good to eliminate Normand, who had a pair of queens with A♣Q♦.

Botez mucked in defeat and Danes was able to take the pot without showing his cards.

€10,200 Mystery Bounty runner-up Sam Greenwood recently joined the field and wasted no time nearly doubling his stack.
In a heads-up pot on a flop of J♦3♦Q♣, Greenwood checked and Charles Hilbert bet 2,000. Greenwood check-raised to 4,000 and Hilbert responded by three-bet jamming a stack of around 17,000. Greenwood quickly called.
Charles Hilbert: K♣K♠
Sam Greenwood: A♦5♦
Hilbert was ahead with an overpair while Greenwood was looking for a diamond. He got it as the turn brought the 2♦ to give him the flush and the 9♣ river didn't change anything to mark Hilbert's elimination.

Action was heads up with around 3,200 in the middle and 8♣A♠5♦ on the board when Paul Newey checked from middle position. Adel Naoun bet 900 from the next seat over and Newey called.
The turn was J♠ and Newey check-called a bet of 1,500. The river was 10♠.
Both players checked the river and turned over their cards. Newey had 5♠4♣ for a pair of fives, but Naoun tabled K♥K♣ to take the pot with pocket kings.
Meanwhile, Maria Konnikova has taken her seat at the same table.

Shortly before the break, Poker Hall of Famer and music enthusiast Erik Seidel raised in early position before Igor Yaroshevskyy moved all in with a short stack of around 6,000. Seidel called.
Igor Yaroshevskyy: A♥Q♠
Erik Seidel: A♥A♦
Yaroshevskyy was in bad shape but had his outs increased as the flop landed 10♥8♠9♠ to give him a gutshot and backdoor flush draw. The 7♠ turn increased his outs further and the 5♠ river gave him the flush to double through the poker legend.

Erik Seidel's seat at Table 18 is no empty as the Poker Hall of Famer was eliminated not long after getting aces cracked by Igor Yaroshevskyy.
