A late position raise and Terrence Chan came in for a reraise from the small blind before Christer Johansson made a cold 4-bet in the big blind. The original raiser folded after some thought, what he said was Jacks later.
Terrence Chan though moved all-in leaving the Irish Open winner shaking his head disgustedly.
Eventually Johansson folded and Chan picked up the pot.
With around 8,000 in the pot already by the turn of the board, ElkY seems to have moved in from the cutoff for his last 8,550. Jesper Hougaard on the button spent some time considering it but ultimately opted for the fold; so did ElkY's other opponent in mid position before coming to the same conclusion.
PCA final tablist Benny Spindler confidently called a 2,000 bet on the river of a board, but just shook his head and mucked when the bettor turned over for trips.
Spindler's still pretty comfortable though on 33,000.
Matt Hawrilenko is down to just 4,500 and looking suitably depressed. Just now he lost another meadium-sized pot holding against his opponent's . No-one hit anything, although it looked like Hawrilenko had had a flush draw at one point or another.
There was a flop on the felt, and it looked as though it had checked around to the gent in position, who had bet. Back to Matt Glantz, who now chwck-raised. Guillaume Darcourt in between the two of them now called or raised all in (there wasn't much left of his stack), the bettor passed, and Messrs. Glantz and Darcourt were on their backs.
Glantz: for top pair
Darcourt: for a set
Turn: offering Glantz some hope
River: dashing all those hopes to the ground and stamping on them
Darcourt more than doubles up to 19,000, while Glantz is reduced to 15,000.
Jörg Peisert is up to perhaps 70,000 (he was spending rather more time just looking pleased with himself than actually stacking his new chips) after doubling up with pocket on a board that read .
4th place in the WSOPE Main Event and you'd think Jason Mercier would be happy to take a breather, but no!
He just moved all-in against a 6,500 or so bet for 9,825 more on the turn of a . His opponent declined to call and Mercier is back up to around his starting stack.
Mr. Chad Brown has a pumped-up stack to match his biceps, after he got to the end of a board and his pocket kings busted a player holding pocket queens.
The cut-off raised to 700, Ivan Demidov called in the small blind and Liz Lieu reraised to 1,800 from the big blind.
The cut-off called and Demidov folded.
Lieu bet out 2,700 on the flop and got called. She then checked to her opponent on the turn, who bet 4,225, Lieu then check-raised to 10,000 and he immediately folded.
