Arriving at the table, three players were all in, and Ian Walsh had the biggest stack.

Ian Walsh: K ♦K ♣

Eimantas Kriacuciunas: A ♣J ♥

Josef Gulas Eimantas Kriacuciunas: A ♠Q ♥

With 16 players left, and 14 ITM, if Walsh's hand held it would burst the money bubble.

The flop fell 2 ♣4 ♣K ♠ and Walsh improved to a set. The 2 ♦ on the turn meant his Full House secured the pot, chipping him up to over 700K, while both Gulas and Kriacuciunas missed out on a money prize.

The remaining players will continue the action until only 9 remain.

The flop was down J ♥9 ♥7 ♣ and Maciej Kondraszuk bet 28K from the Button. Gabriel Rymar raised to 56K, and two players folded before Kondraszuk called.

On the T ♣ turn, Rymar moved all in and Kondraszuk put his 120K stack into the middle.

Ryman revealed J ♣9 ♣ for two pair, but Kondraszuk has turned a set with T ♦T ♠.

The Q ♠ river saw Kondraszuk secure the full double up and Rymar was left with only 3BB and was eliminated shortly after.

PepaG min-raised to 10K from the Cutoff and Norway's Robin Andersen moved all in from the Small Blind for 120K.

PepaG had around 210K behind and asked Andersen if he 'wanted the call?'.

'If you want I can call, you can choose' said PepaG. But Andersen simply shrugged before replying, 'You can choose.'

PepaG ultimately decided to fold, and verbally revealed he had Pocket Sixes.

24 players remain in 1C, with 14 ITM, and 9 advancing to Day 2.

With the flop down 3 ♣8 ♣6 ♦, Valerijus Raginis had bet 18K from the Button and Marian Vacha was all in for 78K from Under the Gun.

Raginis called and saw that he needed to hit.

Raginis: K ♣4 ♣

Vacha: T ♠T ♦

The 6 ♠ turn was safe for Vacha, but the 7 ♣ river gave Raginis his flush and the pot.

Raginis chipped up and is looking to build up a very healthy stack, as he has already advanced to Day 2 with 336K and can only progress with his largest stack.

Sebastian Kotowicz moved all in for 29K (10BB] from the Hijack and Sascha Frick asked for a count from the Small Blind before he reshoved for 70K.

Kotowicz: T ♣9 ♣

Frick:A ♠T ♥

The flop fell K ♦Q ♣2 ♥ and Frick held his lead, but the 9 ♦ on the turn meant Kotowicz hit his out and he survived on the 4 ♣ river to double up.

Kotowicz is searching for his second OLA Main Event deep run after taking 16th in 2025.
