Ercan Atmaca:   
Simone Santucci:   

It could have easily been the end of the line for Atmaca as his sevens were dominated by Santucci's nines. However, he flopped a set and never looked back with the       running out on the board.

Simone Santucci - 2,200,000
Ercan Atmaca - 500,000

We caught up with a hand where Simone Sintucci had his stack of 625,000 committed on the     flop and was up against Bastian Gallitzendoerfer.

Simone Sintucci:   
Bastian Gallitzendoerfer:   

Sintucci flopped a set but oddly enough it was still a coin-flip situation with Gallitzendoerfer flopping both an open-ended straight draw and a flush drawing.

The   turn was safe for Sintucci and he doubled his stack with a full house after the   river paired the board.

Meanwhile, shortly after, Renato Messina lost his short stack and there were just 22 hopefuls remaining.

Bastian Gallitzendoerfer - 1.7 million
Simone Sintucci - 1.5 million

Ercan Atmaca jammed over the open by Kestutis Jungevicius for 420,000. Tiziano Di Remauldo four-bet shoved for 1,100,000 and Jungevicius folded.

Ercan Atmaca:   
Tiziano Di Remauldo:   

Atmaca was behind and he stayed that way after the     flop. However, the   turn paired his queen to take the lead and Di Remauldo was now the one behind needing one of the three remaining kings to win the pot. A blank completed the board on the river and Atmaca doubled his stack through Di Remauldo.

Ercan Atmaca - 950,000
Tiziano Di Remauldo - 700,000

Patrik Jaros check-raised the     flop from 125,000 to 420,000. Frederik Brink tanked for a minute before he called. Jaros fired out for another 350,000 on the   turn and Brink called.

The   river completed the board and Jaros jammed for more than the approximately 1.3 million Brink had left in his stack. Brink tanked for several minutes before he called.

Jaros tapped the table as to say nice call. But the reality of the situation turned out to be different. Jaros turned over   .

"What the f&#%!" screamed Jaros as he found out his hand was good with Brink calling with   .

"I thought you had some bluffs," said Brink before heading to the cashier.

Meanwhile, Jaros was thrilled that he extended his chip lead to 6.1 million in chip.

Patrik Jaros - 6.1 million
Frederik Brink - 0
