Albert Iversen Eliminated

Albert Iversen called his opponent's bet of 1,650 on a flop of {J-Clubs} {J-Spades} {4-Hearts}. When the {8-Spades} came on the turn, Iversen was faced with a 2,000 second bullet and elected to move all in for his remaining 6,450.

"Stupid call," Iversen's opponent said as he pushed in the additional 4,450 and turned over {K-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}.

Iversen was on a stone bluff, showing {A-Hearts} {7-Clubs}. No help for him on the {J-Hearts} river and he made an early exit.

Big Hand for Thobert

Vanessa Thobert, who had dropped a few chips, is back up to around the 16,000 mark. She flat-called a 2,500 bet from her opponent on the turn of a {J-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {K-Hearts} board, and then moved all in without a moment's hesitation on the {J-Hearts} river. After giving it some thought, her opponent declared, "No," and folded, showing the {Q-Clubs}. Thobert showed him pocket kings for the rivered house.

Even More For Torre

Jean-Mathieu Torre is up to around 20,000 after knocking an opponent with his {Q-?} {J-?}. The opponent was holding pocket nines, but Torre made a Broadway straight and his hapless opponent exited the cramped tournament area in the manner of everyone trying to pick their way around the tables, slowly and carefully.

Stevie Sweatin'

Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick isn't playing today, but that hasn't stopped him from scoping out the competition. Chidwick has been parked in the middle of the tournament area for the last two hours and appears to be intensely sweating Johnny Lodden's table.

18-year old Chidwick gained notoriety this summer after winning over 100 seats to the WSOP Main Event on PokerStars, despite not being old enough to play.

Klys Me Quick

Miroslaw Klys, the last player registered today, has not been making friends at his table. Not sure what the preflop action was, but come the river of the {10-Hearts} {8-Spades} {7-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} board he happily called a 3,000 bet from his lady opponent, and found his {Q-Spades} {9-Spades} straight beating her pocket kings. She is now short-stacked and visibly disgruntled, while Klys cheerfully rakes in the chips.
