Melanie Weisner and Simon Ravnsbaek have just been involved in a huge hand that resulted in Weisner being all in and Ravnsbaek eventually folding a straight to her.
On a board reading Ravnsbaek folded to Weisner and the American was all in for a shade over 33,000 with around that already in the pot. Ravnsbaek was in deep thought and looked genuainely pained in his decision making.
"It's a difficult spot to be bluffing in," started Ravnsbaek, "but I guess you're capable of doing it.."
Ravnsbaek apologised to his table mates for taking so long to act and says if anyone wants to they can call the clock on him. Nobody does and after two more minutes Ravnsbaek folded and showed .
"Now show me the bluff. It'd be sick!"
Weisner smiles and turns over the but refuses to show her second card.
We have just lost both Soren Kongsgaard and Jonas Klausen as we inch closer to the end of Day 1a. We don't have the details of Kongsgaard's exit but we do have the details of Klausen's exit.
There was an open from Lars Hansen in the hijack and a cold call from the cutoff before Klausen moved all-in for 9,425 in the small blind. Hansen reshoved, the cutoff folded and we had a showdown.
Day 1a of the European Poker Poker Tour Copenhagen Main Event has been completed after seven 60-minute levels here at the Casino Copenhagen inside the Radisson Blu Hotel. A total of 83 players exchanged DKK37,275 (€5,000) for 30,000 tournament chips and the chance to become an EPT champion. When time was called on proceedings only 48 of those players remained, the best placed of them all being Steve O'Dwyer who bagged and tagged a more than healthy 190,975 chips.
O'Dwyer built his stack quite early in the day and when we asked him how he replied, "I got lucky I guess," but it cannot all be down to luck as O'Dwyer always seems to be at the right end of the chip counts. His massive total is going to take some catching and it will not be a surprise if he is the overall chip leader going into Wednesday's Day 2.
Hot on O'Dwyer's heels is Lauri Varonen on 165,150 whilst third place at the end of Day 1a belongs to Roberto Romanello, the Welshman bagging up 115,475 worth of precious ceramic discs.
There were only two Team PokerStars Pros in the field today, Pierre Neuville and Arnaud Mattern and both managed to scrape through to Day 2 with 15,000 and 19,900 chips respectively.
Tomorrow should see a much larger field with more than 150 players expected. Amongst them will be PokerStars Team pros Johnny Lodden, Viktor Blom and Theo Jorgensen, serial online qualifier Martin Jacobson and scores more talented players to boot.
Join us from 1200 CET for all the action, as it happens, live from the EPT Copenhagen Main Event.
