Scott Freeman has the button in Seat 1. Albert Iversen opens the pot with a 55,000 raise and Rene Mouritsen is the lone caller.

The flop brings {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {9-Clubs} and Rene checks to Albert to makes a continuation bet of 80,000 which is all it takes to push Rene out of the pot.

Quick Break

The clock has been paused while the players take an unscheduled 10-minute break.

We have already lost five players in the first 29 hands, in lightning-fast action. Play will resume shortly for our four remaining players.

Level: 22

Blinds: 12,000/24,000

Ante: 3,000

Hand #30 - Albert Iversen

Max Greenwood has the button in Seat 2. Action folds to him, and comes out raising with 60,000 chips. Albert Iversen makes the call from the big blind.

The two men see the flop come {7-Hearts} {4-Spades} {9-Clubs}, and both players check.

Turn: {2-Hearts}. Iversen checks again, and Greenwood counts out a bet. He puts in 85,000, and Iversen quickly says, "Raise." He reaches for chips, stacking up 220,000 chips, and ships them into the pot. Greenwood makes the call.

River: {10-Clubs}. Iversen bets all in with his big stack, and Greenwood looks flustered. After a short moment, he reaches for his chips in a bluff move, trying to pick up a read. He sits with his elbow on the rail, propping his head up as he shuffles a stack of chips, deep in thought. Finally, he does fold, and Iversen takes the pot.

Hand #32 - Albert Iversen

Albert Iversen has the button in Seat 6. Rene Mouritsen raises to 80,000 from the cutoff. Iversen makes the call. The two men are heads up.

Flop: {4-Spades} {Q-Spades} {A-Spades}. Mouritsen bets out 150,000. Iversen makes the call.

Turn: {3-Diamonds}. Mouritsen checks, as does Iversen.

River: {8-Diamonds}. Mouritsen checks again, and Iversen comes out with a bet of 281,000. Mouritsen quickly calls. Iversen shows the {Q-Hearts} {8-Hearts}, and will win the pot with two pair. From the rail, one of their supporters says, "Danish on Danish violence," as the two fellow countrymen trade a few chips.

Max Greenwood has the button in Seat 2. He limps in from the button. Mouritsen calls from the small blind, and Iversen decides to raise from the big. He makes it an extra 125,000 to call. Both opponents fold, and he wins the pot preflop.

The Danish Are Here in Style
The Danish Are Here in Style
As we expected, the Danish cheering squad is with us today in the final table arena, supporting their two countrymen who are still left in the final four. We didn't expect them to show up in such style though.

After seeing their pal Rene Mouritsen take down a big pot yesterday with king-seven, or king with the axe, all of the Danes have showed up today with crowns and axes!

If you look at the picture closely, you might recognize one Jesper Hoagaard who won a bracelet earlier this summer in Event 36, a $1,500 No Limit Hold'em event.
