Niall Farrell vs Hans Thumann

Level 2 : 300/600, 75 ante

Hans Thumann limped under-the-gun with the blinds 300/600 with a 75 ante. Niall Farrell then raised to 2,200. Philipp Zukernik and [Removed:291] called from the button and big blind respectively, as did Thumann.

The flop came {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. [Removed:292] and Thumann checked to Farrell who bet 3,800. Zukernik folded, as did [Removed:292], with Thumann electing to call.

The turn was the {9-Diamonds} and both players checked.

On the river, which was the {3-Hearts}, Thumann checked to Farrell who bet 8,600. After some thought Thumann called and was shown {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades} from the Scotsman.

Thumann's mini-revival from half starting stack takes a small hit, but Farrell is up and running int his High Roller.

Ludovic Geilich vs William Kassouf

Level 2 : 300/600, 75 ante

Ludovic Geilich raised to 1,700 under the gun. It folded to William Kassouf in the hijack who said: "Make it colourful!" and raised to 4,350 with a veritable selection of blue, purple, orange and yellow chips.

Geilich called and it went heads-up to a flop of {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}.

Geilich checked and Kassouf bet 6,675.

"Good flop for my hand. What you got?" said Kassouf, watching as Geilich check-raised to 17,400.

"Can I see your stack?" asked Kassouf.

"Can I see your stack?" said Geilich. Kassouf called.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds}.

"Pocket pair you have two outs," continued Kassouf. "Ace-high you have three outs."

Geilich then bet for 25,800 and Kassouf thought about his decision. He thought about it for so long that tablemate Martin Kabrhel called the clock on him. As the clock ticked down Kassouf eventually folded, and Kabrhel berated him for taking so long.

"I had a good hand," said Kassouf, as his stack dwindled to around 30,000.

Aleksandar Tomovic vs Hans Thumann

Level 1 : 250/500, 50 ante

Niall Farrell raised to 1,5000 from middle position. Aleksandar Tomovic called from the button, as did Hans Thumann from the big blind.

The flop was {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and both Thumann and Farrell checked to Tomovic who bet 2,500. Thumann called and Farrell folded.

The turn brought the {7-Diamonds} and both players checked.

The river was the {3-Spades} and Thumann checked to Tomovic who bet 5,500. Thumann quickly called, but was shown {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a turned flush, and quickly mucked.

Both players are down from their starting stacks of 100,000, but there is still plenty of play left in the day.

Chris Moorman Enters the Fray

Level 1 : 250/500, 50 ante

Chris Moorman, online poker's most accomplished tournament player and member of Team888 has joined the action, bringing the total number of entrants to the €5,300 High Roller 13. Entrance is open for eight levels, so until the start of Day 2, meaning there is plenty of time for players to buy in.

Martin Kabrhel Tangles with Tsoukernik

Leon Tsoukernik raised to 2,500 from the hijack. Martin Kabrhel was in the hijack and three-bet to 8,600. Tsoukernik called.

The flop was {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. Kabrhel lead for 4,000 and Tsoukernik raised to 11,000. Kabrhel called.

The turn was the {3-Hearts} and this time Kabrhel checked to the his fellow Czech who bet 15,000. After much thought Kabrhel slowly moved out a bet of 50,000 and Tsoukernik folded.

More Players Join the Field

As predicted, Ludovic Geilich and Niall Farrell have finished their pre-gaming in the restaurant here at King's Casino and have joined the field in their seats.

Also joining them are Michael Stuwe, [Removed:291], Phillipp Zukernik and Hans Thumann.

Enzo Del Piero Into Early Chip Lead

On a flop of {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades} two players including Pierre Neuville check to Enzo Del Piero who bet 3,500 with the blinds 250/500 with a 50 ante. William Kassouf folded on the button, Neuville called, and the third player got out of the way.

The turn was the {6-Clubs} Neuville checked and Del Piero bet 8,500. After clarifying the bet size Neuville called.

The river brought the {k-Hearts} and Del Piero bet a chunky 30,500. Again Neuville sought clarification from the dealer as to the bet size. Martin Kabrhel, as vocal as ever, was seated next to him. "Thirty-five. 25k chip, 5k chip and 500".

Neuville called. Del Piero showed {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for a full house sevens full of sixes, and Neuville mucked but not without showing the {7-Spades} to the table.

"Early chipleader," said Kabrhel.

With the addition of [Removed:291] and Michael Stuwe to the field, the 11 players will need to be rebalanced.
