Eduardo Lopes was all-in for around 15,000 and at risk versus Joakim Andersson.

Livello 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jeremie Demri raised to 2,600 in early position, then called when Andreas Kaddour shoved for 16,500 in the hijack.

Andreas Kaddour: K♠J♠
Jeremie Demri: A♠J♥

Demri had Kaddour dominated, but Kaddour picked up a flush draw on the Q♥Q♠7♠ flop and completed it on the 8♠ turn. The river was the 3♦ and he doubled up off the former chip leader.

At the same time on another table, Leo Margets bet 5,000 from middle position on a flop of 7♦8♦4♥ and Remigiusz Wyrzykiewicz raised to 12,000 in early position.

Margets called and the 5♦ fell on the turn. Wyrzykiewicz then put Margets all in and she snap-folded for her last 25,000.

Metaal Hammers Aniulis

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Kyriakos Papadopoulos opened to 3,500 and was called by Evaldas Aniulis. Action folded to Govert Metaal who produced a three-bet jam for 23,900.

Papdopoulos folded and after some thought, Aniulis made the call to put Metaal at risk.

Govert Metaal: 8♦7♦
Evaldas Aniulis: 9♠9♦

Metaal was in trouble versus an overpair, but hope arrived on the A♥8♠Q♠ flop.

The 10♣ turn was a brick but the 8♥ rolled off on the river to give Metaal trip eights and send him the pot.

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Vladimir Troyanovskiy raised to 11,000 in the big blind and Ho folded. Odeen moved all in for 36,500 and Troyanovskiy quickly called.

Jerry Odeen: 8♠8♣
Vladimir Troyanovskiy: Q♦9♦

Odeen was ahead with his set of eights but needed to dodge Troyanovskiy's flush draw to stay alive. The 3♠ turn was safe, while the river was the Q♥ and Odeen doubled up.
