With some 6,000 in the middle to the , Daan Mulders bet 2,700. Elvis Petcu on the button carefully prepared a raise before splashing in what appeared to be 8,700 and Mulders snap-folded with the words "trappy trappy".
Alejandro Lococo was spotted all-in with a short stack soon after returning from the dinner break. He was looked up by Simon Roboh and the cards were flipped over.

The board ran out and that spelled the end for Lococo, who may still re-enter on Day 1a or take another shot on Day 1b.
Far biggest stack on the table is Peter Kvisthammar, who already has more than five times the starting stack at his disposal.
Players are heading on a 75-minute dinner break after playing six levels on the day.

There were only around 9,000 in the middle to the river on which Renat Bohdanov checked. Soenke Jahn bet 4,000 to then face the check-shove by Bohdanov.
Jahn was in the tank for around two minutes and mentally talked it through before making the call. Bohdanov exposed the for a busted flush draw to forfeit a big chunk of his chips. Jahn doubled for 40,000 with the and jumped well above the average.
Ori Azul opened for 1,200 from middle position before Umberto Visceglia three-bet the button to 6,000.
In the small blind, Sam Abernathy moved all in for about 40,000, prompting a quick fold for Alul. Visceglia went into the tank with 16,500 behind. Eventually, he let it go and Abernathy took it down without a showdown.
Guy Goossens and Daniel Menger tangle in a pot worth around 17,000 to the river on which the bigger stack Menger simply jams all-in with a tower of 5,000 chips. A few seconds later, he jokes "you fold anyways" to the Belgian and adds "if you fold, it's all over".
Goossens tanks for another minute and then folds, admitting to a "big hand". Neither cards had hit the muck yet and Menger suggested to show if his opponent would do also. Goossens shook his head and there was some smiles at the table.
Menger is among the big stacks in the field alongside Andreas Berggren on the same table.
