What a Life

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Day 1a chip leader Rens Feenstra had put Tobias Peters at risk after the latter six-bet jammed for 108,000. Feenstra's pocket kings got cracked by ace-queen and the hot run of Peters continued with barely anything that can stop him as of lately.

Anton Wigg has also more than doubled up once again, now with more chips than Feenstra.

Big Stacks and Bustouts

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Govert Metaal pushed Pascal Vos out of a pot on the board {10-Hearts}{3-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{K-Diamonds} to claim the 30,000 chips in the middle of the table, showing the {Q-Hearts} for a straight. Metaal pushed his stack to 200,000 and Wouter Beltz is right there as well.

Micha Hoedemaker and Matthias de Meulder were both eliminated. The latter put his hopes on an open-ended straight draw with {3-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and got called by David Boyaciyan with {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for second pair.

More for Chang

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On the {J-Hearts}{7-Spades}{9-Spades} flop, Chin Sin Chang bet 5,000 and was called by Aviv Meiri before the former bet another 7,500 on the {3-Diamonds} turn. Meiri called and both then checked the {2-Hearts} on the river to see Meiri turn over {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. Chang had that beat with {10-Clubs}{10-Spades} and increased his already decent stack further.

Not a Good Day for Buky

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Robert Buky had lost a lot of chips early on with kings against the {A-}{6-} of Steve O'Dwyer, then doubled up before losing some more chips to the Irishman again. Finally moved upstairs he was on a table with Pascal Hartmann and Olvedo Heinze to get the remainder of his stack in with {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}.
