First, he doubled up EPT Warsaw winner Joao Barbosa. Hougaard was holding
, Barbosa was holding
, and a queen on the flop sealed it. Barbosa now on 47,000.Then, a little while later, Hougaard found himself involved from the cutoff with a gentleman on the big blind. Hougaard bet the flop and the turn of the
board, and each time recieved a call from the big blind. Both players checked the
river, and the big blind turned over
to elicit a muck from Hougaard and take down the pot.
Jelinek got in a preflop raising battle, in position, against Andrey Zaichenko. He eventually stopped short of the five-bet all-in. He made a call of 15,000 to see the
flop (with an angry face, though), and moved all-in when Zaichenko bet 15,000. Jelinek was snap called, and Zacichenko announced, "Aces!" as he flipped
to Jelinek's
. The turn and river bricked, and Jelinek said, "Almost folded that one as well. Should've folded both!"

She's not the only one that has climbed significantly over the six-figure mark. We just saw Alexandre Gomes leaving the room. That struck us as curious, since we counted him at 37,000 less than fifteen minutes ago. Passing by Table 28, we saw Dennis Phillips stacking up 125,000 chips. It's a good bet that he got them from Gomes.
Annette Obrestad, who seemed to instantly have 60k at start of play today, has now upped that total to a very healthy 125k, and shows no sign of slowing down.
