Berg Doubles from Grain to Bowl of Rice

Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
PokerStars Team Online member Anders Berg has had a diminishing sort of day, his stack eroded until with under 10,000 the warning lights were flashing for his EPT life. Kenni Gren just gave him some oxygen, calling his 1,500 bet on the flop and his 6,225 all-in shove on the turn of a 
board. Gren shook his head when he saw Berg's 
for a flopped set which beat his 
, turning into a house on the 
river.
Dassau-t
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
Tobias Dassau gave it all he had to shift Mark Hirleman off his raise to 8k preflop. Hirleman in position had invested 8,000 as part of a raising war (leaving himself 31,000 behind) and Dassau pushed all in for 28,875 total. Hirleman considered this for a while, before making the call with 
and finding Dassau holding the 
. The board rolled out 
and with a polite table tap Dassau left the tournament.
Niel Down - Claus Brought Almost to His Neess
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
We didn't quite catch all the action, but there was a preflop raising war between Claus Nielsen (hijack) and Danny Neess (small blind) which culminated in 9,675 from Neess and a call from Nielsen.
They saw an 
flop which Neess checked. Nielsen bet 12,300, and Neess asked him how much he was playing (A = 36,000 behind) before flat-calling.
They checked down the 
turn and river, and Nielsen turned over pocket . Neess however revealed 
for top two pair, and is now at well over 100,000 - our current chip leader.
Ladies Help Wigg Out
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
Anton Wigg is up to 95,000 after he knocked out Szymon Poeszoch with against on a 
board. Can last year's winner provide a repeat performance?
Hudson the Rail
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
The downward trend exhibited by early climber Spencer Hudson has ended in elimination in level 7. Down to 17,000, he found a hand and a player to get it in with and against. These were: and Martins Adeniya. As soon as Hudson announced, "All in," Adeniya plonked down enough chips to cover him and turned over 
at the same time. Some days you just know it's not coming; Hudson looked resigned as the board came down 
and quickly scooted out of the tournament area.
Schiep It
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
Anton Wigg raised in the hijack and faced a reraise to 3,800 from Koen Schiepers on the button. Wigg made it 9,800, Schiepers made it All In for 48,000, and Wigg made the call.
This was a 100,000 pot. Impressive.
Wigg: 
Schiepers: 
Board: 
...
Reigning champion Wigg would have been huge chip daddy if he'd won that monster hand, but is instead at a rather less gargantuan 52,000. Belgian online qualifier Schiepers, meanwhile, is up there with the big boys on around 100,000.
Godzilla Across the Table from King Kong
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
Yes, it's a battle of the preflop monsters. 
for Benjamin Jensen, for Rene Scheptel. If you think the money goes in preflop, you're wrong. If you think one of them goes broke, you're wrong. Somehow a Queen high board ran out all the way to the river, with Jensen calling hefty bets on the last two streets. The river alone cost him 13,200 and he nodded his head in a wry, "I knew it" sort of way.
Neuville has the Bigger Pierre
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
Pierre Neuville who has managed to qualify for around two zillion EPT's (roughly) online just took out a short stack (as in eliminated him, he didn't show pity and take the guy out for a meal). Neuville showed a dominating pair of to his opponent's and held on a 
board.
Martin Left Wendt-ing
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
Martin Wendt has dropped down to around 10,000 after he 4-bet all-in with against a shorter stack's 
. A real rollercoaster of a board that came 
, Wendt made two pair but his opponent rivered a straight to double to around 25,000.
