Harry Lodge raised to 240,000 from the button and Andrew Hulme called in the big blind.
The 8♣2♠A♦ flop saw Hulme check-call a bet of 150,000 from Lodge.
The J♥ turn checked through to the 9♠ on the river. Hulme took the lead for 190,000, sending Lodge into the tank. Lodge finally settled on a fold and Hulme chipped up.
On the last hand before break, Alexandre Fournier limped in from the small blind and David Coleman checked his option in the big blind.
Coleman called a bet of 100,000 on the A♣J♠8♦ flop before the 4♥ turn checked through to the 10♥ river. Fournier used up a time bank before making an overbet of 550,000. Coleman chucked a time bank card of his own into the middle and found a call after his thinking time.
Fournier tabled Q♥6♠ for queen-high and Coleman dragged in a pre-break pot with his K♦10♠.
With stunning architecture, rich cultural history and millions of annual visitors, it's no surprise that Barcelona is one of the top tourist attractions in the world.
It's also no surprise that the European Poker Tour (EPT) Barcelona festival is the biggest EPT stop of them all, drawing thousands of players and generating millions tens of millions in prize money. And while EPT Barcelona is mainly about the poker, its prime location at Casino Barcelona puts it within minutes of some of the city's top attractions.
Here are some of the top activities to do in Barcelona off the felt, all within a few miles of EPT Barcelona.
David Coleman rasied to 200,000 from under the gun and Marius-Catalin Pertea called in the cutoff.
Coleman slowed down on the J♦K♥5♦ flop, choosing to check-call a bet of 250,000 from Pertea.
The J♣ turn saw a repeat of the action, this time Pertea sized up to 375,000.
The 6♦ river checked to a showdown. Coleman tabled K♦10♣ having paired his king on the flop. Pertea rolled over K♠10♦ for the same hand, chopping this pot.
After Sriharsha Doddapaneni moved all in for 1,620,000 from the button, Stephen Song called from the small blind.
Sriharsha Doddapaneni: K♦J♥
Stephen Song: A♦K♠
The board came 10♣8♣6♠5♣8♠ and Doddapaneni became the day's latest elimination as the remaining 11 players guaranteed themselves at least a six figure score of €107,450.
After taking his 20,000 to 90,000, Daniel Myers put in his one big blind stack from early position. Harry Lodge called from the small blind and Marius-Catalin Pertea checked his option in the big blind.
Myers appeared very relaxed after the J♠8♣3♠ flop, chatting to Mitch Hynam and Carl Shaw on the rail. The blinds checked, and did the same on the 7♣ turn and 2♠ river.
"The toppest of pairs," said Myers, as he tabled Q♥J♣. Lodge sent his K♦5♦ into the muck and Pertea did the same with his Q♣9♦.
The following hand, Myers wagered his stack of 370,000. The action folded to Andrew Hulme in the big blind, and he called to put the Liverpudlian at risk.
Daniel Myers: A♦8♥
Andrew Hulme: Q♦J♦
Myers was looking to pull off "the greatest comeback in PokerStars history," and it appeared he would be on his way to do that after the K♥5♣2♣ flop and 6♥ turn. However, the Q♠ completed the board and gave Hulme a pair of queens to seal the checkmark and elimination.
