Did you enjoy that interlude? We did. But it's over now. Cards are back in the air. There were ten eliminations in the first two levels. After another thirteen eliminations we're done for the day. We're crossing our fingers that it won't take more than four more levels.

Lacay Shah's Lackey

Another big stack going down, aside from Matthew Woodward, is Ludovic Lacay. Newly moved off the feature table, it folded around to him on the small blind, and he raised. Big blind Alem Shah pushed, Lacay called and oh, deary me.

Lacay: {A-Spades} {K-Spades}
Shah: {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}

Board: a surprise-free {8-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {Q-Spades}

Shah doubles to 1,300,000.

It's not Over for Obrestad

Over on the feature table, Annette Obrestad has doubled up to around 1,400,000 through chip leader Matthew Woodward. The chips went in on a {2-Spades} {Q-Spades} {6-Spades} flop, and although there was some danger on the turn, she doubled up on the harmless river.

Obrestad: {K-Spades} {4-Spades}
Woodward: {Q-Clubs} {9-Clubs}

Turn: {9-Diamonds}
River: {J-Spades}

Back up to a very decent stack, Obrestad is once more a force to be reckoned with.

Alain Roy Eliminated in 22nd Place (€52,000)

Alain Roy - 22nd Place
Alain Roy - 22nd Place
There was nothing Alain Roy could do about his last hand of the tournament. After Mikhail Tulchinskiy opened with a raise, Roy squeezed out {A-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} and shipped his whole stack for 702,000. Tulchinskiy asked for a count before calling with {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}. There was no help for Roy anywhere on the board; Tulchinskiy collected another pot and another scalp.

No Action for Roger

Roger Hairabedian pushed from the button and Johannes Strassmann gave it some serious thought while a load of cameramen entirely obscured the view. Eventually Strassmann passed, though, and the wall of camera guys parted to reveal Hairabedian showing a {6-?}.
