, we just caught the final betting actions. After a check from Jan Skampa, Allan Baekke bet 22,500 into a pot of about 40,000. Skampa went deep into the tank for several minutes before double-checking his hole cards. Finally, he grabbed his stack of about 45,000 chips and slid them forward. Baekke could not have folded any quicker, and Skampa earns himself a nice pot.He's up to about 110,000 after that all-Scandinavian battle.
flop and was called by Tobias Reinkemeier - closely followed by vague disappointment, from a spectator's point of view anyway, as both players turned over
with nary a club in sight, and following an uneventful turn and river they chopped it up.Kelly - 35,000
Reinkemeier - 70,000
By the by, Reinkemeier was telling a tale of woe while this was all taking place.
"I asked a waitress for a coffee and she said it was 50c, but she needed the money in advance. I asked her why, she said she needed the change, so I gave her a euro. Then she never came back."

Board:
Yup, quads'll do it. Levi doubles to a shade over 80,000.
flop and then check-min-raised another bet on the
turn.So there was around 70,000 in the pot by the river, when Cecilia bet out 25,000. Karmazinas called - but his face sank like a lead zeppelin when Cecilia turned over
for flopped quads. He showed pocket eights, and is down to 100,000 while the Spaniard moves on up to 150,000."Spanish power," declared a completely unbiased member of the Spanish media. Indeed.

Down to his last 25,800 chips, Black shoved them in under the gun. Two seats over, Visser asked for a count before making the call. The table folded out of the way, and it was heads up for Black's tournament life.
Showdown
Black:

Visser:

The flop was both excellent and dreadful for the at-risk Black, coming

board, at which point Coelho bet out 17,000. Cecilia thought about it and eventually called; Karmazinas folded with a sigh of frustration that suggested he's had a very unhappy couple of levels.Coelho and Cecilia both flipped
and chopped it up. Karmazinas continued to huff and puff.
On a turned board showing
, the two men had already built a pot of about 50,000. Sarwer checked, and Deeb fired a bet of 22,300. Sarwer then stuck in a check-raise to 45,000, and Deeb went into the tank for several minutes. He eventually took off his shades to get a better look, and, after several more minutes, he called.The river came the
, putting trips on board. Sarwer knocked the table this time, and Deeb thought it over for another several minutes. He eventually checked behind, and Sarwer tabled
. "Just a seven," he said, unsure. It was good though; Deeb mucked his hand with a frown, slipping down to about 60,000. Sarwer, on the other hand, seems to have just pipped the 200,000-chip mark with that pot.
