Stenbo Cracks Damli's Aces Again
Level 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Earlier in the tournament, Christjan Kay Stenbo with pocket twos cracked Tone Damli's aces in post-flop action after a two spike the flop.
Lightning struck twice against Damli. She got it all-in again, this time preflop, against Stenbo who was holding queens. A queen spiked the board for her opponent and Damli has been eliminated from the tournament.
Damli shared that she will not reenter today and will likely focus on one or more of the many side events hosted at the Coolbet Open.

Kim Christensen With a Huge Stack
Level 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
The entire tournament room is packed. When looking around to see who has the biggest stack, one player stood out the most.
Kim Christensen has a huge stack of blue 5,000 denominated chips with an estimated stack of 220,000. Assuming he doesn't lose chips during the next 30 minutes or other players don't catch up he will likely end the day as not only the Day 1b chip leader, but also the overall chip leader to start Day 2.
