01:20 Varga on the wave
He min-raised, and Hermanovsky tried to play it aggressively with a 3-bet to 30K, which Varga called. He then c-bet the flop J♣T♠4♦ for 30K and got paid immediately.

In this hand, Cohen jammed his last 5k chips, Sirilla called, and Horvath re-shoved with a 48k stack, which Sirilla eventually called with pocket JJ and dominated his opponents pre-flop. Cohen with KQo was suddenly ahead on the Q-high flop against JJ and A3 under Horvath's hands, but the tables turned on the turn, where an Ace landed, and Horvath defended his lead even after a river. He doubled his stack and eliminated Cohen from the flight.
Cohen: K♣Q♦
Sirilla: J♠J♥

Board: 3♣5♠Q♣A♣8♠

Varga: A♥Q♣
Board: Q♥5♠9♠6♥4♠
00:05 Cooler

Break 30 minutes
23:30 Kapalka will continue
After Jelcs opened to 5K, Kapalka 3-bet shoved his 17K stack, which only Baloghova called with 98s. She faced pocket QQ and needed a big portion of luck to eliminate her opponent. Even though she hit her pair of 9 right on the flop, the runout bricked for her, and Kapalka doubled his short stack.
Kapalka: Q♣Q♥
Baloghova: 9♥8♥
Board: 3♣A♣9♦A♥T♣
23:20 Meety faced all-in
Baloghova opened to 5K, and Meety 3-bet to 12.5K, which only the original aggressor paid. Both then checked the suited flop 7♥8♥9♥, but the action was restored on the turn A♦, where Meety, with a delayed c-bet of 14K, was called. The river brought another T♥, and Baloghova took the lead and jammed. Meety was not interested in paying, and the pot went in Baloghova's direction.
23:10 Horkay eliminated
Varga opened to 5K, and Horkay jammed his approx. 40K stack with AJs. Action back to Varga, who made the call with KJs. The K right on the flop decided that Horkay would need a re-entry to fight for a spot in the final day.

Hermanovsky limped from UTG, and Fedor, right behind, raised to 7K, which only Hermanovsky called. Fedor then c-bet the suited flop A♦K♦J♦ to 7K and got paid. Hermanovsky then check-called another 14K bet on the turn 6♣ and took the lead on the river 7♣, where he asked for a 15K value bet.

Hermanovsky: 9♦7♦
Fedor: Q♣T♣
Board: A♦K♦J♦6♣7♣
22:40 The right time
After a series of folds, action went to Bodolai on CO, who did not hesitate and shoved his 20K stack. He found his opponent in Cohen on the BB, who called with pocket 22. It seemed that deuces would be enough for elimination, but K on the river doubled Bodolai's stack.
Bodolai: K♣J♠
Cohen: 2♥2♠

Cohen: K♣K♦
Board: 5♣6♠5♥Q♦7♣
22:10 What a return!

Even though Harmanovsky missed the flop, he got some extra outs with his flush draw. He did not complete it, but the turn brought a T, which, in the end, was enough to eliminate Kradlak from this flight.
Kradlak: A♥K♠
Hermanovsky: T♠9♠
Board: 7♠Q♦4♠T♣8♥
21:45 Third barrel convinced
After Major opened to 3.5K, both players on the blinds defended. On the flop 8♦4♦9♠, Cohen from the SB led to 5K, and Horkay on the BB called, joined by Major as well. Cohen kept applying pressure on the turn 5♦ with the second barrel worth 8K and pushed Major out of the game. In the HU on the river K♠, Cohen fired 13K, which convinced Horkay to give up this hand.
Level 7: 600 - 1200 / 1200, avg. 83,333, ent.: 18/30
21:30 Major on the horse
Four players in total reached the flop 5♣4♠J♠ for 3.5K, where Major continued with 5K, which only Stojak called. The second barrel on the turn J♥ was worth 6.5K, and Stojak wanted to proceed. However, 8K on the river 9♥ secured the pot for Major, as Stojak refused to pay.
21:20 Cohen underdog
After a limp from Major, Cohen raised to 3.5K and received calls from Horkay on the BTN and Major. Cohen continued for 6K on the A♠8♣6♥ flop, and only Horkay stuck around. The turn 6♣ was checked through, bringing the 8♦ on the river. Cohen then took a stab at the pot with an 8K bet, but Horkay was not going anywhere and made the call. At showdown, Horkay tabled AJo, which comfortably beat Cohen's K-high bluff and secured him the pot.
Cohen: K♠Q♠
Horkay: A♥J♦
Board: A♠8♣6♥6♣8♦
21:10 Pot for Stefano
He ended up in HU against Misumi on the flop 8♣3♣4♠, where Misumi check-called an 8K bet, and both moved to the turn 6♥. Stefano chose another barrel for 11K, which Misumi called again. After both checked the river Q♣, Misumi tabled just a pair of 4 and missed an open-ended straight draw with 45s, which was not enough against a set of 66.
Stefano: 6♦6♣
Misumi: 4♥5♥
Board: 8♣3♣4♠6♥Q♣
Level 6: 500 - 1000 / 1000, avg. 68,182, ent.: 22/30
Break 30 minutes
20:25 Stojak crashed
After 1.7K open from Varga, four more players called before Stojak on the BB took advantage of this situation and shoved his 56K stack. Only Varga called with pocket 99 and needed to withstand the board against two overcards, KQs. A J-high board brought no drama to the table, and Stojak was eliminated.
Stojak: K♠Q♠
Varga: 9♦9♥
Board: 6♥J♦7♠5♦6♣
20:15 Vadasz wanted more
He ended up against Hermanovsky and Gonda on the suited flop 5♠6♠3♠, where Hermanovsky led to 3K, and both players on the blinds called. The turn brought K♥ and another 13K bet by Hermanovsky, which only Vadasz was willing to pay. The action sparked on the river as Vadasz check-raised all-in after a previous 13K bet from Hermanovsky, who gave up this time and let his opponent collect the pot.

The flop Q♥6♣7♦ was checked through by all players. Action picked up on the turn Q♣, where Sater fired 5.5K. Only Hermanovsky made the call, taking the hand heads-up to the river 7♣.

Sater: A♠J♠
Hermanovsky: K♣J♣
Board: Q♥6♣7♦Q♣7♣
19:50 A completed straight
After Brandt and Stojak limped, Varga, on the BTN, raised to 3K, and both players called. He then c-bet the flop Q♣T♠2♣ to 2.5K, and only Brandt continued. The same action followed on the turn K♣ for 8K, which led them to the river 6♠, where the action stopped. In the showdown, Brandt had J♠9♠ with a completed straight on the turn, prompting Varga to muck his cards.
19:40 Major for re-entry
With just 14.7K behind, Major got his stack in pre-flop against Fedor. Holding pocket QQ, Fedor had his opponent's pocket 77 dominated and was in great shape for the knockout. The board ran out without any surprises, allowing queens to hold and sending Major to the rail.
Major: 7♣7♠
Fedor: Q♠Q♦
Board: A♣3♣4♥6♦4♣
Level 4: 300 - 600 / 600, avg. 60,526, ent.: 19/23
19:30 Baloghova went 3 barrels.
She opened to 1.4K, and after a series of folds, action ended up at Gonda on the BB, who called. Baloghova then c-bet the flop 5♦7♦2♥ to 1.5K, and both moved to the turn 2♠, where another 2.5K bet was called, which brought them to the river 7♠. The final barrel for 4.5K was not called, and Baloghova scooped the pot for herself.
19:20 Jelcs did not get paid
Jelcs and Stefano entered the pot with limps before Vadasz raised to 2.5K. Both players made the call and took the action to the flop A♦2♣3♥. Vadasz continued for 3.5K, and only Jelcs stuck around. The turn 2♥ was checked through, bringing the 4♣ on the river. Jelcs then went for a thin value with a 4.5K bet, which was enough to force a fold from Vadasz and secure the pot without a showdown.
19:10 No more value for Fedor
Fedor found himself heads-up against Hermanovsky on the flop T♥4♣8♠. After Hermanovsky led out for 2.5K, Fedor responded with a raise to 6.1K, which Hermanovsky called. The turn brought the 5♥, and Fedor kept up the pressure with an 11K bet. Facing continued aggression, Hermanovsky eventually decided to let his hand go, conceding the pot to Fedor.

18:50 The middle pair was enough
After Horvath limped, four more players joined until Varga from the SB raised to 4K, and only Brandt wanted to see the flop J♦T♠J♥, where Varga c-bet to 2.5K with a subsequent call from Brandt. The runout 8♣ and 3♦ was checked by both players, and in the showdown, Brandt dominated his opponent with T9o again AKs.
Varga: AK
Brandt: T9
Board: J♦T♠J♥8♣3♦
18:40 Great spot for Gonda
Gonda, Jelcs, and Bodolai reached the flop 9♥8♣T♥, where Jelcs led to 1.2K, and both players called. The turn brought another T♠, and this time, Gonda asked for 3K, which got paid again. After the river 3♦, Gonda continued with a 10K-value bet, which both of his opponents willingly paid only to see a full house with 88 under Gonda's hands. Bodolai showed just a Tx and Jelcs mucked his cards.
Level 2: 200 - 400 / 400, avg. 50,000, ent.: 15/15
18:25 Varga with full value
He opened to 800 and Brandt 3-bet to 2.5K, which Varga called. The flop came 6♥Q♠J♥, and Varga check-called 5.5K c-bet. The action peaked on the turn 8♠ with similar action. Varga check-raised all-in after a previous 15K bet by Brandt, which he eventually called with pocket KK. Unfortunately for him, Varga hit his two pairs on the flop with QJo and doubled his stack after the river without K. Brandt fell to just 1K chips.
Brandt: K♠K♦
Varga: Q♣J♦
Board: 6♥Q♠J♥8♠9♣
