Kevin Iacofano opened to 26,000 in the cutoff, only for Jens Lauridsen to make it 57,000 form the big blind. After a few moments spent mostly looking uncomfortable, Iacofano called and they saw a flop.
Flop:
Lauridsen bet out 60,000 and Iacofano called, still looking not so happy about it.
Turn:
The bet from Lauridsen was 150,000 this time, and Iacofano finally gave it up, looking relieved once his cards were in the muck. Iacofano is approaching the danger zone on 210,000; Lauridsen is pretty comfortable for a player not seated at the Table Of All The Chips - he's up to 850,000.
Quiet but efficiently-grinding short stack Charles McIntyre has busted out in dramatic fashion. Although looking ready for the ski slopes, bundled up in scarf and hat and sunglasses, McIntyre played a good game and just found his 250k to be insufficient to budge Andrea Dalle Molle from his preflop . Small blind McIntyre shoved with and initial raiser ADM called - there followed an ace on the flop, but after the turn the river fell the .
"YESSS! COME ON!" shouted Molle so loudly my feet actually left the floor. But he calmed down moments later as McIntyre came round the table with a, "Nice hand," and a handshake.
Having returned today as the shortest stack, Juha Helppi is capitalising on his early triple up and pushing his table about. He raised John Eames off a flop recently (making it 125k after a long look at Eames' bet out of 38k) and then took down the next pot with a preflop three-bet out of the big blind.
Last hands saw interesting hands develop on two of our three tables.
First, John Eames opened to 26,000 on Helge Rahbek's big blind, the latter calling before check/raising Eames' 30,000 bet to 78,000 on the flop. Eames responded by moving all-in and Rahbek quickly folded.
Elsewhere Michael Tureniec opened to 27,000 before Per Linde 3-bet to 78,000 next to him. Tureniec then slid out a 4-bet to 174,000 and Linde quickly folded.
The EPT feature table live stream is just about to start here in Copenhagen. The players who'll be popping up on your internet screens have had about ten minutes to get used to it (the camera guys circling them, the bright lights) and will soon be commentated upon.
During this introduction, a couple of pots worth noting went down on the outer tables - Nikolas Liakos took down a preflop pot with a three-bet vs. Kevin Iacofano, and Simen Johannessen moved in on the button (no call).
It happened up on the feature table, where we are no longer allowed to go and whence they have not yet commenced live-streaming, so we only have the barest of details, but it looks as though Per Linde put him in preflop and Langmann called for his last 650,000.
Langmann:
Linde:
Board:
Our last Team PokerStars Pro is out of the running, and our predictions of an uber-stack emerging at the feature table seem to be coming true - Linde is up to around 2.4 million, around the average stack when they get to six-handed at the final.
A flurry of action and all the money went in between Simon Hanninger and Jan Sørensen.
Hanninger:
Sørensen:
The board came and Hanninger doubled up with that river, Sørensen screamed as though he just suffered an electric shock and has been crippled as a result, and is down to 170,000.
