The Quiet Four

With Philippe D'Auteuil's departure, all of his rowdy railbirds have left the final table area since they went off to raise hell and run up a massive bar tab, which is not very hard to do in the various watering holes around the greater London area. It's rather quiet scene right now as the final four are in a focused pursuit for the PokerStars.com EPT London championship.

Marcin Horecki Doubles Though Eric Liu, Takes Chip Lead

Eric Liu raised to 120,000 from the button and Marcin Horecki called from the big blind.

The flop was {K-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} and both players checked. The turn brought the {Q-Hearts}. Horecki checked again, Liu bet 200,000 and Horecki moved all in. After a bit of a think, Liu made the call.

Horecki {K-Hearts} {10-Clubs}
Liu {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts}

It was top pair vs. the straight and flush draws as we went to the river. It was the {5-Clubs}, no help for Liu and Horecki doubled to 2,162,000.

Horecki is your new chip leader, while Liu is down to 2,006,000.
