Play has really slowed down on the non-feature table, with the players out there apparently taking turns raising a standard 60,000 except for short-stacked Cornel Cimpan who periodically shoves for his last 190,000 or so.

Nobody has called anything on that table for at least 15 minutes now.

Chop It Up

On the feature table, Mihai Manole got the last of his chips in with {A-?} {9-?} and was called by Georgios Kapalas -- but Kapalas was also holding {A-?} {9-?} and following a flush-free board they chopped it up.

Jens Kyllonen Eliminated In 12th Position (€40,000)

Jens Kyllonen - 12th
Jens Kyllonen - 12th
A huge pot has caused the exit of former EPT Copenhagen winner Jens Kyllonen. The Finn raised to 60,000, Carter Phillips reraised to 175,000 from the small blind and Kyllonen quickly pushed for almost 1.4 million chips. Phillips snap-called.

Kyllonen: {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}
Phillips: {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds}

The board was {10-Spades} {6-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {8-Hearts} and Phillips had Kyllonen covered by about 400,000 to win the biggest pot of the tournament. Phillips is up to 3.1 million as a result, the new chip leader.

It's Good to Be the Chip Leader

Chip leader Carter Phillips has been getting very jiggy indeed with his stack.

Toni Ojala raised to 61,000 and Phillips reraised to 130,000. After a moment's deliberation, Ojala called. They saw a {9-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} flop and Ojala checked it. Phillips bet 160,000, and the pot was his.

A few hands later and woefully short-stacked Cornel Cimpan shoved under the gun for a mere 140,000. It folded around to Phillips in the big blind, who couldn't really help but call.

Phillips: {K-Spades} {8-Hearts}
Cimpan: {J-Clubs} {J-Spades}

Board: {4-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {2-Clubs} {4-Spades} {10-Diamonds}

Cimpan doubled to around 320,000. This did not deter Phillips, though -- next hand it folded around to him in the small blind, and he raised to cover Cimpan's new stack. A laughing Cimpan folded.

Lapossie 4-Bet Folds

After 4-betting Asa Smith to 312,000, Matt Lapossie was quickly faced with a 5-bet all-in from the young Englishman who moved in for 814,000.

The Canadian thought for a second before giving it up.
