"The Good News is You Have a Table"
Level 6
: 200/400, 400 ante
Sander Eentalu bet 3,500 into a pot of a bit more after the 
came on the flop. Bartlomiej Grabowskicalled before Knut Gronli raised to 9,000. Eentalu paused for a short while before he folded and Gronli won the pot after Grabowski did the same.
Defending Coolbet Open Main Event champion Mathias Siljander was also on the table and spoke to Grabowski after the hand.
"The bad news is that you lost some chips," said Siljander as he slid a drinks table over. "The good news is you have a table."
"I'd rather have the chips," Grobowski said with a smile.

Level 6

Hatipoglu needed some help and got back into his seat after he 
came on the river to complete the straight.
"I knew that would happen," said Hatipoglu to the table as the dealer pushed him a big pile of chips.

Torbjorn Furseth: 
Von Zweigbergk pulled ahead in the hand after he paired up on the flop. A potential triple-up appeared more likely for Von Zweigbergk after the 
came on the turn.
However, Furseth pulled ahead in the hand after the 
completed the board on the river to give him top pair and top kicker.
"So unfair," Von Zweigbergk said. "I am immediately off to reenter."
