flop. Casey Kastle, who had somehow snuck into the hand, folded; over on the button Thomas Brolin made the call.They saw a
turn and Visser bet out 2,900. After an eventual call from Brolin, they saw a 
river and Visser counted out some chips, but opted to check. Brolin now bet 6,000, and after a few minutes' intense thought, Visser passed.
board; we arrived just in time to see Daniel Drescher bet 10,000 from the button and Rolf Slotboom in the big blind disappear into the tank. When he came out again, he folded, leaving himself on 16,000. Drescher is up to 45,000 and rather pleased with himself.
board, over 20,000 already in the pot.Dennis Boekel seems to have checked; either way, Bart Spijkers had a 10,000 bet sitting in front of him and Boekel was mulling it over. "I call," he said very quietly after some time and turned over
. A heartfelt sigh accompanied Spijkers' mucking of his hand - he's down to less than 5,000, while Boekel is up to 70,000 or so.EDIT:
Spijkers now appears to be out.

flop and then checked the turn and 
river. "Board," confessed Brown, turning over 
for a flush draw that never came in; and then followed the LOLs as his opponent turned over 
for a worse flush draw that had turned out to be a lucky escape. Chop chop.
The flop came down
, and Manole checked from the big blind. Mattern continued out with a bet of 1,375, and Kainov quickly matched it. Manole ducked out of the way, and the two remaining players saw the turn bring the

paired the board and drew a check from Mattern. Acting quickly again, Kainov held a yellow T5,000 chip in his hand and nodded, flicking it into the pot. Mattern quickly folded, and Kainov showed his 
for the miss. It's only a miss if you fold though, and Kainov's bet has earned him the pot.Mattern is back down around 35,000 now.
Flop:
An unexpected check, check.
Turn:
Josipovic checked again, and Lacay instantly moved all in for around 20,000. Instacall.
Lacay:
Josipovic: that classic raise-four-bet-call hand,
River:
Lacay is bust, and Josipovic is on around 65,000.
Heads up for national pride, the two men watched the dealer run a flop of
. The betting action isn't completely clear, but Van Der Burg either led out or check-raised to 3,000 before Schmerda popped it back to 10,000 straight. The move sent Van Der Burg deep into the tank, as he alternately looked like he might fold, call, or even raise.He said a few words across the table in Dutch, and a short conversation ensued. After letting it slide for a moment, the American dealer finally reminded them that it was English only during a hand.
"Yeah, that's right," said Van Der Burg. "Sorry, I couldn't translate it." He eventually let his hand go with a reluctant frown, sending the pot over to Schmerda. Both men are about even, and both are still hovering near their starting stacks of 30,000.
