Plenty of Action Before the Break
"Lassiole" defended his big blind and check-called three barrels by Alexandros "mexican222" Kolonias on a board of 
with the 
for top pair on the flop and two pair on the river. Kolonias only had 
and had to fork over a full double.
Ryhor "Grisha1983" Karapanau doubled with 
when he had an easy call out of the big blind as Rui "RuiNF" Ferreira had jammed the 
and the 
board was no threat at all. Ferreira dropped below half a million but then won a big pot off Pascal "Pass_72" Lefrancois when he got value out of a river raise on the 
board to see his 
get paid off by Lefrancois.
Karapanau busted before the break and re-entered to get a seat right after "zazano" cracked the 
of Brunno "botteonpoker" Botteon with on a 
runout.
Once all the dust had settled down from the raises, three-bets and squeezes, the remaining 48 players out of 114 entries headed into a scheduled 5-minute break.
