In a heads-up raised pot, the flop showed 6♥J♦4♥ when Florian Ribouchon checked to Vitor De Souza Coutinho who checked as well.
On the 6♣ turn, Ribouchon led out for 2,100,000 and after some thinking, Coutinho called.
The 3♥ completed the board on the river and Ribouchon fired 6,500,000. After a minute, Coutinho called, showing J♣9♣ for a pair of jacks. Ribouchon quickly sent KxQx into the muck.
Michael Oar open-shoved under the gun for 7,800,000 and Pavel Plesuv decided to call on the button. Oar tabled K♥10♥ and was in a flip situation against Plesuv who had 9♠9♦.
The board gave K♣Q♥3♠J♣2♥ to bring a pair of kings to Oar who doubled up.
Martin Stausholm jammed all in from the dealer button. Arnaud Mattern called putting his tournament life at risk from the big blind. Both players revealed their cards.
Arnaud Mattern: A♥8♣
Martin Stausholm: Q♥9♥
The board ran out 9♠K♥J♥J♣10♣ for Stausholm to scoop the pot. With this pot, he sees himself head toward the average stack.
Pavel Plesuv raised to 1,600,000 in the cutoff and got called by Vitor De Souza Coutinho on the button to go see a flop A♠7♠3♠. Plesuv check-called Coutinho for 800,000.
Both checked on the 5♣ turn and a J♠ hit the river. Plesuv sent 1,200,000 in the middle and it was enough to make Coutinho muck his cards.
