Breaking Things

[user66118]

Another level has come and gone without an elimination. The players have stepped offstage for another 15-minute break. Back in a flash with newer, higher, more exciting-er blinds and antes.

Guldhammer Calls Another All In

[user66118]

Anton Wigg hasn't played a pot in recent memory, and he finally opened one with a raise to 72,000. Morten Guldhammer apparently hadn't noticed that, and he came over the top with a reraise to 172,000. As the table folded back around to Wigg, Guldhammer broke into song: "I have a pocket, I have a pocket." We're assuming he wasn't referring to his garments, but to the fact that he held two cards equal in rank. Either way, Wigg was undeterred. He moved all in for 708,000 total, and the call came instantly from Guldhammer.

Showdown
Wigg: {A-Hearts}

Guldhammer: erm, {K-Hearts}

this time

Okay, so here we go. Wigg was ahead, but Guldhammer was drawing live for the knockout. You get the feeling he's going to catch one of these times, but not this time. The board ran out clean for Wigg: {7-Spades}

.

Guldhammer - 1.75 million
Wigg - 1.488 million

Klein Does Not Go Broke With Aces

[user46392]

Morten Klein limped under the gun and it folded around to Morten Guldhammer in the small blind, who also limped. Richard Loth in the big blind checked his option, and they saw a flop.

Flop: {3-Hearts}

Guldhammer checked to Loth, who unexpectedly bet out 110,000. Klein, whose under-the-gun limp had frankly looked just a tiny bit suspicious, now raised to 240,000. Guldhammer passed and the action moved back to Loth.

Loth spent some time looking like he was suffering the worst emotional torture imaginable, and then announced all in for 991,000.

Klein made a face and wandered away from the table. When he came back, he folded {A-Clubs}

up. Loth showed him pocket {7-Spades}

for a set.

Wow.

Test Time

[user66118]

Things are a bit slow and tedious on the TV table for the time being, as you can no doubt surmise. We know you've got some time to kill, so let's see how good your knowledge of Denmark is. Without further ado, Gloria Balding and a crew of poker players present "Do You Know Your Danmark?"

Did you do better than Roberto Romanello? Speaking of Roberto Romanello, head over to PokerNews TV for his interview and all of the rest from this week in Copenhagen.

No Sloth From Loth

[user46392]

Francesco de Vivo raised it up to 70,000 and got by both both Richard Loth behind him and Jesper Petersen in the big blind.

They saw a {J-Spades}

flop and it checked around to Loth, who bet 135,000. Petersen got out of there sharpish, and although it took him a little longer, de Vivo eventually folded too.

"What? ... What?!"

[user66118]

Francesco De Vivo raised to 70,000, and Roberto Romanello came along with the call from the blinds.

The flop came out {10-Clubs}

, and the action check-checked. That trend repeated itself on the {6-Spades}

turn as well as the {4-Clubs}

river. With no further action, De Vivo opened up his hand, revealing a surprise {J-Hearts}

. It was the winner, but not without consequence.

One of the commentators on the EPT Live broadcast promptly fired De Vivo from the tournament. "What? ... What?! That's just shoddy. What is he doing? He's fired."

De Vivo will be allowed to continue working for the time being, but his chip count isn't exactly benefitting from his super tight play.
