The 7th place for Hustler. He 3-bet Flešár’s 20K open to 60K, only to be met with an all-in from Flešár. Hustler called with A♠K♣ but he was bit behind against Flešár’s pocket 9♦9♠. The board gave Flešár a set, and Hustler won’t advance to the final day again.

03:05 Bubble burst with Sirotňák
He sends his ultra short of 25K with K♥2♥ only to be called by Szalai with A♦8♦. Board did not bring any surprise and Sirotňák is today´s bubble boy.
Szalai: A♦8♦
Sirotňák:K♥2♥
Board: 6♥K♦A♣4♥4♣
02:55 Slavik vs Sirotňák
Sirotňák opened to 20K and Slavik defended from the big blind. The flop came 9♠7♣Q♦ and both players checked, but on the J♣ turn, Sirotňák fired 40K, only for Slavik to raise it to 93K. Sirotňák squeezed, and Slavik snap-called. They went to showdown with K♣T♣ for Slavik and Q♦J♠ for Sirotňák, giving Slavik the straight. The 2♥ river didn’t change anything, leaving Sirotňák on an ultra short stack as he donated 230K to Slavik.
Sirotňák: Q♦J♠
Slavik: K♣T♣
Board: 9♥7♥Q♣J♣2♥
02:50 Who will end on the bubble?
Hustler: A♠K♣

Level 16: 5000 - 10 000 / 10 000, avg. 364,286, ent.: 8/51
02:35 Who is more brave?
Szalai opened 22K from UTG and Sirotňák 3-bet to 60K, getting a call. The flop came 5♥6♥7♥, and after Szalai checked, Sirotňák fired 125K. Szalai angrily folded, showing K♦K♣, while Sirotňák rolled over J♣J♦ — a move that probably didn’t bring Szalai much joy.
02:25 Szalai vs Flešár
Flešár stuck to his standard open for 20K and found a caller in Szalai. On the Q♣K♠6♦ flop, Flešár c-bets for 27K and Szalai came along once more. The 5♥ on the turn went check-check, and when the river brought the A♣, Flešár fired 40K to test Szalai. After a short tank, Szalai made the call — and Flešár quickly mucked his cards.
02:15 Action slowed down
As we approach the bubble, the action has tightened up. Players are tight and careful, waiting for the right spots, and most pots are being decided either preflop or right on the flop.
Level 15: 4000 - 8000 / 8000, avg. 318,750, ent.: 8/51
02:05 Vaji doubles ultra-short
Sirotňák opened to 13K, only to be met by Vaji shoving his ultra-short 22K stack. Sirotňák snap-called with AQo, but Vaji rolled over pocket kings, which held with ease to keep him alive in the tournament.
Vaji: K♣K♠
Sirotňák: A♦Q♥
Board: 8♦T♣5♣9♠4♥
01:55 Strycharz doubles
Sirotňák opened to 13K and picked up three callers, setting up a four-way flop of T♦4♣K♠. That’s where Strycharz ripped his 58K stack into the middle, getting action only from Vaji with AJo. Strycharz showed KJ for top pair, while Vaji was left needing help on the turn or river. The runout bricked, and Strycharz found a crucial double. Vaji falls on ultrashort.
Strycharz: K♦J♣
Vaji: A♥J♠
Board: T♦4♣K♠8♣K♥
01:45 Final table is formed and 4 players must be eliminated before Flight 1/B ends!

Break 10 minutes!
01:30 Vaji doubles
After Sirotňák opened to 12.5K on the button, Kovacs 3-bet to 30K, only to face a squeeze from Vaji on the big blind to 65K. Sirotňák quickly got out of the way, leaving Kovacs to make the call with pocket 66. Vaji showed AQo, and this time the pair couldn’t hold. Vaji doubled his stack.
Vaji: A♦Q♥
Kovacs: 6♣6♠
Board: T♦8♣Q♦2♠T♠
01:15 JJ were enough
The flop came 7♥4♦8♦ with Flešár and Kovacs in the game. Kovacs led out for 25K and Flešár made the call. On the turn 2♦, Kovacs fired another 25K and once again got called. The river brought no slowdown, as Kovacs put in a third barrel for 25K. Flešár didn’t like it but eventually made the call. Kovacs mucked his hand, and Flešár dragged the pot with pocket J♦J♠.
01:05 Trap did not click
In this hand, Limper opened to 10K and got a call from Borgon. The flop came 9♠9♣2♥ and both checked. On the 7♥ turn, Borgon fired 10K, which Limper called. The river brought the 8♣ — Limper checked, Borgon checked back, and Limper smirked a little bit as he revealed J♦T♣ for the straight, while Borgon mucked his hand.
Level 13: 2500 - 5000 / 5000, avg. 196,154, ent.: 13/51
00:55 Zakhar takes a smaller pot
For 10K, three players saw a flop of 9♦J♦4♣, which was checked around. On the 2♣ turn, Borgon fired 15K, getting a call only from Zakhar. The river brought the J♠, and this time Zakhar led out for 10K. Borgon went into check-call mode but mucked his cards after Zakhar showed A9o.
00:40 Kovacs slowly milking oponents
The recent series of hands involving Kovacs has followed a similar script. He’s been consistently opening to 10K, and in one spot got action from fellow Hungarians Stefano and Szalai. On a 7♣5♠4♥ flop, Kovacs c-bet 15K with only Szalai calling. The 2♣ turn brought a second barrel from Kovacs, but Szalai wasn’t willing to continue. After several hands like this, Kovacs has been steadily building up his stack.
Level 12: 2000 - 4000 / 4000, avg. 196,154, ent.: 13/51
00:25 Third double in a row with Husky´s help
Husky hasn’t had much luck in recent hands. In this one, he tried to open from the BTN to 7K, but Jambor on the BB, sitting on a 28.5K stack, decided to shove. Husky called again with the better hand, KJo, versus Jambor’s K8s. The board gave Jambor two pair, making him the third player in a row to double up through Husky.
Jambor: K♠8♠
Husky: K♦J♥
Board: 9♣3♦8♦T♠K♥
00:15 Another short with double
In this hand, Zakhar shoved his 50K stack from early position with A6o. On the other end, Husky called with QJo. After a numeric board and after hit on the river for Zakhar, Husky helped to double up another opponent.
Zakhar: A♣6♠
Husky: Q♦J♥
Board: 9♦4♣9♣2♠6♦
00:10 Meety double
Meety shoved his short stack of around 35K and found a caller in Husky on the SB. Husky showed AQo against Meety’s pocket tens. Both hit the board, but Meety completes a set, leaving Husky’s pair of queens far behind. Husky doubled up off Meety’s short stack.
Meety: T♠T♣
Husky: A♦Q♣
Board: J♦7♣Q♥T♦4♠

22:25 Huzevka doubles his short
After Hudáček opened to 6K, Huzevka decided to shove his 30K stack, getting a call from Hudáček. The board held up for Huzevka, as his pocket 66 prevailed against Hudáček’s A♣3♣. Hudáček lost a small portion of his stack, while Huzevka stayed alive in the tournament.
Hudáček: A♣3♣
Huzevka: 6♣6♦
Board: 7♥2♥Q♦4♣4♥
22:15 Effortless pot for Hustler
Hustler 3-bet to 12K over Huzevko’s original 5K raise, getting a call only from Hudáček. The board ran out A♠6♠7♣4♥Q♣ and checked through from both players. Hustler showed KQo, which was enough to make Hudáček muck, allowing Hustler to take the pot effortlessly.
22:05 No action on tables
At this stage of the game, most hands are ending either preflop or on the flop. The players have tightened up, and we’re waiting to see who will reduce the field before registration closes and who will still take a shot at a re-entry.

22:55 Double seat open
All thanks to Toth. Meety opened to 4K and got a call from Toth, but Zuskáč in the SB shoved his short stack, forcing Meety to shove as well. Toth covered both of them with his stack, called. At showdown, Zuskáč showed pocket 99, Toth had pocket 88, and Meety showed over cards with QTs. However, Toth hit a set on the board, sending both opponents packing and out of the re-entry.

Toth: 88
Meety: Q♣T♣
Board: 7♠8♦2♣Q♥4♥
22:40 Borgon eliminates
After a series of limps, five players saw a flop of 8♦3♦8♣. Szalai took control, firing 7K, only to face a 3-bet of 30K from Borgon. Not stopping there, Szalai 4-bet all in, and Borgon snap-called. Szalai showed A♦6♦, but Borgon had flopped a full house with pocket threes. Even the completed nuts flush on the turn for Szalai did not solve anything and Borgon sent him out of the tournament.
Borgon: 33
Szalai: A♦6♦
Board: 8♦3♦8♣4♦6♣
Level 9: 1000 - 2000 / 2000, avg. 90,741, ent.: 27/49

The river brought the 8♥, Jambor fired 7K and got a quick call. Both revealed an Ace, but Jambor had advantage with 5, locking up two pair and the pot.
Jambor: A♦5♦
Zuskáč: A♥x
Board: 4♥5♥A♣4♠8♥
22:10 Jarkovský eliminated
Hustler kicked things off with an open to 3.2K, getting calls from both Jarkovský and Kover. On the Q♥7♦4♠ flop, Hustler fired 5.2K and again both opponents called. The 2♥ on the turn saw Hustler turn up the heat with 13.5K, prompting Jarkovský to shove after some thought. Kover folded, leaving Hustler deep in the tank — but he eventually made the call, showing A♥7♥ against Jarkovský’s Q♠T♠. The river sealed the deal for Hustler as he completed the nuts flush, sending Jarkovský out of the tournament.
Hustler: A♥7♥
Jarkovský: Q♠T♠
Board: Q♥7♦4♠2♥T♥
Level 8: 800 - 1600 / 1600, avg. 88,462, ent.: 26/46
21:55 Hanzen with set
With a pot over 10K, three players — Meety, Hanzen, and Kovacs — saw the flop A♣5♦3♠. Action checked through, and on the turn 5♥ Meety led from the BB for 12.5K, getting a call only from Hanzen on the button. The river 9♣ slowed Meety down as he checked, but Hanzen shoved and forced the fold. Hanzen then showed pocket 9s, having rivered the set.
21:40 He wanted some value
The flop came 5♦9♥T♣ with Flešár and Molnár in heads-up. Molnár c-bet 5K and Flešár made the call. The turn 7♠ brought a second barrel from Molnár for 8.5K, quickly called by Flešár again. On the river J♥ the action flipped — Molnár checked, and Flešár fired 11K. He didn’t get paid but showed his opponent A8o for the straight.

21:20 Bad time for bluff
It all kicked off with Hudáček’s open to 2.5K, joined by Kovacs and Vaji to see a flop of K♠2♦5♠. Hudáček c-bet 3K, with only Kovacs sticking around. The turn brought another K♣, where Hudáček fired 5K and Kovacs quickly called. On the river A♠, Hudáček went for value with a 10K third barrel, but Kovacs snap-called and showed AQo — lucky, but more than enough to beat Hudáček’s 5♠3♠.
Hudáček: 5♣3♣
Kovacs: A♣Q♦
Board: K♠2♦5♠K♣A♠
21:05 Pay to see the turn
Karwanski kicked things off with a 2.5K open, finding action from Kereszti and Strycharz. On the 4♠6♠K♠ flop, Karwanski c-bet 2K, only to see Kereszti bump it up to 4.6K, forcing Strycharz out.

20:20 Hudáček takes the pot
After Szatmari’s 2.5K open, the hand went six-way to a flop of Q♠T♠5♣, but surprisingly it checked through. The 4♦ on the turn lit the fuse, with Hudáček firing a bet and picking up calls from Szatmari and Husky. On the river Q♥, Hudáček pulled the trigger again with a 15K barrel but this time got no takers and raked in a nice uncontested pot.
20:05 Flush draw vs AA
After two limps, Vaji decided to raise to 4K from the button, finding action only from Halečka on the small blind. On a dynamic K♦9♦T♣ flop, Halečka checked and Vaji fired 6K, which was called. The 8♥ turn slowed things down as both players checked, but on the 7♠ river Halečka tried to steal with a 5K bet. Vaji snap-called and showed pocket Aces, more than enough against Halečka’s 5♦8♦ to drag the pot his way.
Halečka: 5♦8♦
Vaji: AA
Board: K♦9♦T♣8♥7♠
Level 5: 400 - 800 / 800, avg. 61,290, ent.: 31/36

18:50 This time AA did not hold
After Dérda opened preflop, only Stojak joined the action. The flop 9♠9♦3♠ created an interesting spot, as Dérda bet 10K and Stojak called. The turn T♠ prompted Dérda to shove, and Stojak snap-called. Dérda showed AA, but Stojak had flopped a flush with KQs. The river Q♦ didn’t change anything — Stojak doubled up.

Board: 9♠9♦3♠T♠Q♦

18:25 Stojak crashed hard

The flop came A63, and after Pavúk checked, Stojak bet 7,200, prompting an all-in from Pavúk that Stojak called. Pavúk showed a set of AA, leaving Stojak behind with AKo.
