Brian Roberts had made his two hands into two L shapes, put them together to make a triangle, and ask for the triangular all in puck from the dealer. Roberts was all in and everyone quickly folded.
Shortly after another all in would take place, but this time it would end up in a show down. Vladimir Troyanovskiy opened to 130,000 from the small blind and Stephen Chidwick pushed all in for 1,030,000. The last orbit the same happened and Troyanovskiy opted to fold that time. Not this time around though, he called by firmly putting a stack of 100,000 chips in the middle of the table.
Vladimir Troyanovskiy: 
Stephen Chidwick: 
Troyanovskiy rolled with his eyes after the 
flop. No further emotion as the 
and 
completed the board. Chidwick doubled to just over 2 million in chips.

Vladimir Troyanovskiy raised it up to 105,000 from middle position and watched as the action folded around to Brian Roberts in the big blind.
He thought about his decision for a moment before making the call, leaving himself 170,000 in chips behind. The flop came down 
and Roberts then moved all in for his remaining chips. Troyanovskiy made the call and both players revealed their cards.
Troyanovskiy: 
Roberts: 
Roberts was behind but had several outs to a straight. He would get there with the 
giving him the straight which improved to a higher one when the 
completed the board.

Ivan Soshnikov just received a warning by the floor for speaking Russian while having cards in front of him. It wasn't the first time he was told not to, so next time might mean a penalty for the Russian. He hadn't checked his cards yet in this situation, so it's most likely just a habit. It's a habit that needs to stop though if you would ask the floor.
Stephen Chidwick first shoved on an 105,000 open from his neighbor Troyanovskiy while both of them were in the blinds. Troyanovskiy folded so Chidwick gained some chips.
He then lost those not much later when he was on the button. Chidwick limped in, something we've seen him do on multiple occasions for the last two days, and Juha Helppi checked his big blind.
Helppi check called a bet of 75,000 from Chidwick on 
. Both players checked the 
on the turn and the 
popped up on the river. Helppi lead for 125,000 and Chidwick folded after a couple minutes of thinking.
Juha Helppi raised it up to 100,000 from the cut off and was called by Leonid Markin on the big blind.
The flop came down 
and Markin checked. Helppi led out for 125,000 and was called straight away.
Both players checked the on the turn before the 
completed the board. This time Markin reached for his chips and splashed out a bet totalling 130,000 and was called instantly.
Markin turned over his for a pair but was noticeably upset when Helppi then rolled over his 
for a rivered set.

With blinds at 25,000 and 50,000 and a 5,000 ante every hand, things are getting expensive for the shorter stacks.
Just now Leonid Markin opened to 130,000 from early position and Ivan Soshnikov in the big blind was the sole caller.
Soshnikov check called the 150,000 continuation bet on 
, but check folded to his opponents 180,000 second barrel on the turn.

Leonid Markin opened to 100,000 from under the gun and was called by Vladimir Troyanovskiy in middle position as well as Juha Helppi on the button.
The flop came down 
and Markin threw out a 225,000 continuation bet. Troyanovskiy got out of the way and Helppi quickly called.
The dealer revealed the 
on the turn and Markin didn��t slow down, leading out for another 325,000 in chips. The bet was enough to see Helppi quickly muck his hand as he relinquished the pot.
