With around 50,000 in the middle to the K♣6♦2♦10♥8♥ river, Artsiom Panasiuk bet 50.000 and Simon Beckmann pushed all-in for 129,500.
Panasiuk called after more than two minutes and Beckmann tabled the K♦8♦ for two pair, which secured the double as Panasiuk only had 8♠6♥ for inferior eights and sixes.
Only 81 players remain and will aim to make it to the top 75 spots, which will lock up a prize money of at least €2,325 for the efforts. All the players below came up short of that goal and it remains to be seen whether or not the bubble will burst prior to or after the first break of the day.
There were 60,000 in the middle and four players saw a flop of 7♥7♦2♦. Barny Boatman bet 15,000 from the hijack and was called by Sascha Minerva on the cutoff.
Fabian Rolli check-raised to 60,000 from the big blind and was cold-called by under the gun Maor Zaharagi. Boatman was undeterred by all the action that followed his initial bet by raising to 190,000 which gained a fold from Minerva and Rolli.
Zaharagi went into the tank and stared down Boatman. The Londoner looked at the board, then turned to his opponent and said "What's your kicker?" which prompted Zaharagi to rip it all in for 400,000. Boatman snap-called.
Maor Zaharagi: 7♣6♥
Barny Boatman: 2♠2♣
Boatman's speech play worked like a treat as it triggered Zaharagi to shove with trip sevens against his flopped boat. The J♥A♥ completed the board and Boatman is the first player to pass the seven-figure mark and took the chip lead. The Israeli Zaharagi exits before the money despite coming into Day 2 as third in chips.
Big stack Daniel Koloszar raised for Albert Gorelik on the button and David Hu in the big blind to call. The 8♥6♣2♦ flop was checked to Koloszar and he bet 16,000, earning two calls.
Hu checked again the 2♥ turn and Koloszar inquired to see his stack before making it 32,000 to go. Gorelik folded and Hu came to the same conclusion. Koloszar raked in another pot and will soon approach seven figures.
In the meanwhile, Oleksii Natoptanyi was eliminated to reduce the field further.
Daniel Koloszar added even more chips as David Hu departed the tournament area without anything to show for. Koray Korkmaz followed to reduce the field to the last 77 contestants. Only 75 will make the money and tournament staff commenced the hand-for-hand mode two spots away already.
David Boyaciyan defended the big blind against a button raise by Nils Pudel and check-called a bet on the K♦K♥J♣9♦ turn for 21,000. He then checked the A♣ river and Pudel made it 65,000 to go.
Boyaciyan gave it some ninety seconds and then moved all-in, Pudel folded.
There was no major action until the 9♦7♣3♣3♥K♦ river on which Fabian Rolli in the big blind bet 22,000. Sascha Minerva reluctantly called and Rolli tabled the 10♣8♣ for a missed straight and flush draw.
Minerva had that beat with the A♠10♦ to win the pot.
