face-up.
flop, Praz bets 1,250 and is raised to 3,800. He sets his opponent in for around 16,000 total and is called by 
and Praz tables 
. No club or King and Praz is knocked down to 17,000
flop, Isaia continue-bet for 3,600, which was met by an instant all-in from Mr. X. After a minute or two of hesitation, Isaia released his hand, allowing Mr. X to lap up the pot. Before he scooped, he showed his cards to some friends on the rail. I later found out what he had, but Mr. X is an international man of mystery, and I think he should remain that way. I'm therefore keeping my cards very close to my chest. Pun intended.
versus Erich Kollmann's 
on a 
flop. No change on the 
and 
turn and river and Bansi was gone.Kollmann now has 39,000.

and after it's checked to him on the river, Christer Johansson bets 25,000 into a 12,000 pot. Petr Masojidek says to him, "I have to call you, I have two pair."The former WPT Paris winner flips
for the nuts to scoop the pot and push him to almost 100,000.
Having been reraised by a player two seats down, Vikash Dhorasoo insta-called with
only to see he was in domineering shape against 
. The 
flop was a teaser, but didn't seem to concern Dhorasoo too much, and after the turn he looked home a dry.A
river, however, soon tore a hole in his home straight and had him diving for the sick bucket as the rest of the table released the inevitable flurry of gasps and groans.

, only to be squeezed by a fellow Frenchman in the small blind. Baran folded and Lellouche quickly called and found himself dominating his opponent's . But the Poker Gods weren't on his side as one of the two remaining eights came on the board, and Lellouche lost a 41,000-chip pot right at the death.Also on this chip count at the end are Stephen Devlin and Chris Moorman, just about equal after their battles.
