Tamas Lendavai raised to 15,500 in the small blind and then snap-called when Ruben Velasco moved all in from the big blind. Lendavai turning over 
to Velasco's meagre 
, the board came 
and the Hungarian doubled up.
Pedro Javier Piazuelo Ferrero opened to 11,500 from the button and Emil Matsson moved all in from the big blind, a shrug and "I call" from the Spaniard.
Ferrero: 
Matsson: 
The board came 
- Ferrero started with about 70,000 today and he's now over the 250,000 mark.
James Bord opened to 11,500 preflop and Daniel Weinman made it 24,500 from the cutoff.
"All in," said Bord. Weiman got a count which was just over the 100,000 mark before he made the call.
Bord: 
Weinman: 
There was a queen on the 
flop and Bord got out of his seat before the 
turn was even dealt, leaning on the back his chair he dispassionately waited for the coup de grâce which came on the 
river.
The players are dropping incredibly fast today, we can't remember it ever going this quick before.
Caught from the 
flop, multiway, chips fairly flew into the middle when small blind Eric Gambararo shoved, big blind Jose De La Guardia reshoved for more than double and late position Ran Azor followed them in after a bit of a think.
Gambararo: 
De La Guardia:
Azor:
Azor's two pair held over the 
turn and river, bringing a fistpump stand-up, "Yesssss!" from the suddenly above-averagely stacked Israeli.
Andrew Li outkicked Georges Dib preflop with to , and the door swung shut on the 
flop. The latch clicked home on the turn and Li's stack grows higher by 100k.
Ted Forrest, was crippled when his couldn't overcome Carlos Mora's in an all in preflop altercation. This left Forrest really short with about 25,000 remaining but he managed to double up with 
against Javier Martinez Gil's 
on a board of 
. He's now up to about 60,000 but it's only 10 big blinds.
Every time we walk by Kristoffer Thorsson's table he's raising to 11,000 preflop, relentlessly. Judging from the slight dent in his stack this policy hasn't reaped huge rewards as yet, but he's a continual deep runner and must be doing something right. Just now he did it again and found Xuan Liu on the small blind shipping for 140,000 or so - that one he laid down without a fuss.
Liu is a recent addition to Thorsson's table - she started off with a mid-low stack and still has below average, but seems unfazed.
There was around 30,000 in the pot by the time we arrived to see a 
flop; Alex Gomes checked in the small blind before calling a 15,000 bet from Josef Bachar on the button.
The turn was the and Gomes checked again. This time the bet from Bachar was 40,000, the Israeli leaving himself just 55,000 behind. Gomes didn't like the look of that, and after just a few seconds' thought he had folded. Still, on 450,000 after that, around double the average, Gomes remains very comfortable indeed. Bachar is up to 160,000.
Sarah Grant caught up with him at the break.
It looked as though Francois Billard had raised under the gun and Jason Grad had shoved from the button; either way the two Canadians' cards were on their backs when we got there - that grandest of coinflips.
Billard:
Grad:
Board:
Grad doubled to around 200,000. Billard stared at the board like a man bereaved. He shook his head - he's down to just 25,000.
Shiraz Soltaninassab has doubled up with 
against Tamas Lendavai's for what looked to be a 200,000 plus pot on a board of 
.
Daniel Idema has doubled through Will Molson with 
against on a 
board, Idema moves up to 300,000 and Molson has barely 10,000 remaining as we hit the break
