Adi Rajkovic opened 30,000 on the button, and only Adam Martinsson came along in the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 4♣4♠2♣, and Martinsson check-raised a bet of 25,000 to 85,000. Which was enough to drag the pot as Rajkovic mucked his hand.

Wang put in the calling chips and the players showed down.
Henri Kasper: A♠A♣
Yanfeng Wang: 9♠9♥
The flop of 3♥6♣10♠ was clean for Kasper's aces but Wang still had two outs. The turn 7♥ left him drawing slim and the Q♦ river confirmed Kasper's double up.
With 190,000 in the middle, the flop was 3♦3♣2♠ and Francesco Blasio bet 105,000, putting Vladimir Troyanovskiy in the tank. After a couple of minutes, he announced an all-in for 282,000. Blasio called quickly.
Vladimir Troyanovskiy: Q♣Q♠
Francesco Blasio: 10♣10♦
Both players held an overpair to the flop, but Blasio was behind the queens and couldn't find a ten as the board finished with the 9♦ on the turn and the 8♥ on the river. Blasio was left with less than a big blind and was seen walking out of the tournament room shortly after.
