The seat of Danny Covyn was empty while Klaus Suhr and Mantas Zibertas grabbed their smart phones to grab a picture of a three-way all-in on their table.
Suhr had flopped the top set with while Covyn's had an open-ender and flush draw. Zibertas' were the best hand preflop and somehow came out on top thanks to the board, which gave the Lithuanian the nut flush.
While Covyn busted, Suhr was left with more than the starting stack. The vacated seat was then filled by the defending champion Vangelis Kaimakamis.
Jan Bendik opened to 800 on the button and was called by Simon Taberham in the small blind and Presiyan Minchev in the big blind.
On the flop, action checked to Bendik continued for 1,500 and again was called by Taberham. Minchev then raised to 3,500 before Bendik three-bet to 12,500. Only Minchev called.
Minchev checked the turn and then called Bendik's 17,500 bet. On the river, Minchev check-jammed over Bendik's 17,000 river bet and quickly got a fold.
Yasen Dichev continued his early rise and Silviu Nemes then pulled ahead of him after winning a large pot against Tamir Segal. Bet worth 21,000 and 20,000 from previous streets were already pulled into the pot as the board showed . Nemes moved all-in from the small blind and Segal folded, preserving around half the starting stack.
Heads-up to the turn, Hassan Sarris bet 8,000 and was called by Vangelis Kaimakamis. The river completed the board and Sarris now bet 15,500. Kaimakamis was in the tank for just 15 seconds before tossing his cards into the muck.
Kevin Falk in middle position opened to 900 before Grzegorz Wyraz three-bet to 3,000 on the button. Mantas Zibertas, who had already busted Danny Covyn in Day 1b, four-bet to 11,400.
