Dogra Dogra:
Cortellazzi:

The flop left Cortellazzi in desperate shape and the on the turn secured the double for the last remaining Spaniard, making the river meaningless.

Morten Mortensen opened to 250,000 from the button and saw Andreas Chalkiadakis three-bet from the small blind to 550,000. Mortensen faced a decision but had position, so chose to 4-bet to 1,225,000. Chalkiadakis went into the tank but after a couple of minutes threw it away.

In a battle of the blinds, Thomas De Rooij limped in and Alexandru Baron checked out of the big blind.

On the flop, De Rooij checked and Baron checked behind. De Rooij bet the turn for 125,000 and Baron called before the river saw the Dutchman check. Baron bet 275,000 and De Rooij snap-called to see Baron turn over . De Rooij showed for a full house and took down a decent pot.

The players are on their next 20 minutes break, and after the next level, all will have a dinner break.

Over on the feature table, Andreas Chalkiadakis raised to 180,000 and Sebastian Malec three-bet to 480,000 from the cutoff. Chalkiadakis called and the flop came . Chalkiadakis checked, Malec bet 375,000 and the Greek called.

After the turn, Chalkiadakis checked and Malec bet 1,225,000. Chalkiadakis gave his opponent a staring contest and called before both then checked down the river. Chalkiadakis was first to show and flipped over the to win the pot.

Zorlu Er raised to 185,000 from early position and Konstantin Puchkov flat-called with a stack of less than one million in total. On the button, Thomas De Rooij three-bet to 600,000 and Er asked for the amount of the reraise and the stack behind of the Dutchman. Er then folded and Puchkov cut out his stack carefully before just calling.

On the flop, Puchkov moved all in for around 260,000 and De Rooij snap-called.

Puchkov:
De Rooij:

The turn and river were both blanks and Puchkov was eliminated in 13th place for €81,700.

Zorlu Er raised to 165,000 and Thomas De Rooij called in the big blind. On the flop, both players checked. De Rooij also checked the turn and Er bet 200,000 to scoop the pot.

After winning a series of hands, Er seems far more comfortable at the tables and plays his hands very quickly, whereas before there were complaints that he would be slow.
