Axel Gold-Dalg was under the gun when he opened to 700. He was called by the button and by both players in the blinds.
The dealer fanned a flop of 3♦7♠2♥ and the small blind led out for 1,200. Umit Dundar in the big blind called, as well as the button, but Gold-Dalg folded.
On the 8♠ turn, the small blind fired a second barrel of 2,500. He was called twice to discover the K♦ river where everybody checked.
The small blind flipped over 5♠4♣ for a missed straight draw. Dundar had K♠J♠ for top pair and won this hand as the button mucked his cards.

The under the gun player raised to 1,200, then Leo Truche to his left, Olivier Yvora in middle position, Laurent Michot in the cutoff, Laurent Navarro on the button and Loic Durand in the small blind called.
On a flop of 9♠6♥3♠, everybody checked to Michot who bet 3,000. Navarro, Durand and Yvora were the only ones to call.
Michot sized up to 8,000 on the 4♦ turn. He was called twice as the Navarro folded.
The three remaining players checked the 5♠ river, so they all revealed their cards. Durand turned over Q♠Q♦ and made Yvora muck his cards. But Michot showed 6♠6♦ for a set and won the pot.

Moments after he arrived at the table, Michel Leibgorin in the small blind raised to 600 and the big blind called.
Leibgorin continued for 1,000 on the 7♠4♥8♠ flop, then fired a second barrel of 1,700 on the 3♦ turn. The big blind called both times.
After the 8♣ river landed on the felt, Leibgorin decided to check. The big blind took this opportunity to throw five yellow chips worth 1,000 each in front of him. This bet made Leibgorin.
