Kacper Pawlowski got it in for the last 77,000 with the A♦J♦ and Emil Bise called holding the 8♠5♠.
The K♦Q♠2♠ flop gave Bise a flush draw while Pawlowski had a broadway draw. Nothing changed with the 3♣ turn but the 7♠ river improved Bise to a flush.
Another two players departed right after as the field dropped to 44 hopefuls within the first hour of play.

A double elimination was announced for table eight and Ilija Savevski as well as Dennis Jung grabbed their belongings, while the chips were pushed to Andrzej Jedryczka.
According to Savevski, he got it in via three-bet shove with pocket tens and Jung had pocket nines. They were well covered by Jedryczka, who flipped with the A♥K♣. The A♣A♦3♦3♣2♦ runout left both shorter stacks drawing dead on the turn.
Moments later, Jared Strauss departed from one table over after losing a flip for the last eleven blinds with ace-king versus pocket tens.

Ertan Cicekdemir opened to 20,000 from under the gun and Ilie Smintanca-Januszewski made the call on the button. Michael Gehrmann then three-bet to 52,000 in the small blind.
Cicekdemir responded with a four-bet to 150,000, resulting in a fold from Smintanca-Januszewski and a call from Gehrmann.
The flop of 2♣7♣A♦ saw Gehrmann check, with Cicekdemir firing 75,000. Gehrmann then raised all in and the call was made.
Michael Gehrmann: A♠A♣
Ertan Cicekdemir: A♥K♦
Gehrmann's set of aces was in great shape ahead of Cicekdemir's top pair, with the Q♥6♣ runout cementing a massive double up.

Yehuda Cohen snapped a picture of his final hand before the dealer could rush away the board. The massage parlour owner from next door had turned top pair with the A♥5♣ but Denis Alimanovic got there with the 7♦4♦ for a gutshot and flush draw on a board of 9♦8♦5♠A♦J♠.

Ihar Khursin had already been all-in prior to the A♦Q♥J♠3♦9♦ river on which Andrei Spataru bet 100,000. Didier Naegely called and flashed his cards briefly, but could not beat the 9♥9♣ of Spataru. Khursin showed his K♠Q♦ for a pair of queens before heading to the payout desk.

Johan De Clercq raised from under the gun before Gael Dirig shoved almost all of his stack into the middle, leaving just 6,000 behind. De Clercq made the call to see the 10♣6♥10♠ flop.
Dirig then moved his last chips in, with a quick call from De Clercq.
Gael Dirig: 6♠6♦
Johan De Clercq: A♦10♦
Dirig had flopped a full house but still had outs to fade against De Clercq's trip tens. The 9♠ turn and 8♠ river were safe for Dirig to ge the full double up.

Adi Rajkovic was spotted on his way to the payout desk and Theodoor Woolschot raked in the pot with his A♦Q♠ still exposed, as the dealer just rushed away the board.
Jared Strauss added "ace-king with the ace of clubs", which was a rough beat for Rajkovic as the flop had beed A♣9♣7♣ to give the Australian top pair, top kicker and the nut flush draw.
Gerrit Blanckaert followed soon after from a different table to bring the field to the last 53 contenders.

Charlott Eisenkolb and Matthias Kribben were eliminated in quick succession and the next all-in showdown took place over on table 95.
Former bigger stack Gerrit Blanckaert pushed all-in from the button with the 4♦4♣ and David Lecomte called all-in out of the small blind with K♦J♠. The overcards struck on the Q♥J♦6♥3♥5♦ board to keep Lecomte in contention.
