Kabrhel Not Wasting Any Time

Martin Kabrhel

Martin Kabrhel meant business when he sat down today. Less than 10 minutes into the first level, he was heads up on a {K-Clubs}{J-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{Q-Clubs}board. Kabrhel's opponent bet out 2,200, about half the size of the pot. And Martin moved all in for another 24,000. The other player called the huge overbet, tabling {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}for a flopped set. Kabrhel showed {A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, scooping the pot with the rivered nuts. He's one of the chip leaders at the moment with 60,000.

...And We're Back!

Just like that, the internet magically reappeared.

So, who's here so far?

With so much at stake and so little space in the tournament area, even the big name pros arrived more or less on time.

Spotted at the tables so far we have luminaries Juha Helppi, Barny Boatman, George Danzer, Ricardo Sousa, Michael Greco, Pierre Neuville, Alexia Portal, Antony Lellouche, Ludovic Lacay and Jeff Sarwer, among others. Former EPT winners gracing the felt include Sebastian Ruthenberg, Joao Barbosa, Maxim Lykov and Vicky Coren.

Now that the internet is back, this is going to be a fantastic tournament...

Ich Bin Ein Ber-Winner

There's going to be one big, big winner here in Berlin by the end of the week, but the press room Internet connection is not it. Please sit tight while we attempt to resolve the technical difficulties; updates will resume shortly.

Welcome to EPT Berlin

Welcome back to Europe for the next installment along the PokerStars.net European Poker Tour. This time we're in Berlin, Germany, some 425 km northeast of Dortmund where this stop has been held during previous seasons. The Grand Hyatt Hotel will be the host venue for this stop, which record numbers are expected for.

Scheduled to be on hand for Day 1a are Team PokerStars Pros Sebastian Ruthenberg, Benjamin Kang, Johannes Steindl, Arnaud Mattern, Katja Thater, Tom McEvoy, Victoria Coren, William Thorson and Jude Ainsworth. PokerStars sponsored players Thomas Bichon and Julien Brecard are also slated to play Tuesday.

Last year, Sandra Naujoks bested a field of 667 runners to take the €917,000 first-place prize at EPT Dortmund. Three German players made it to the televised final table and ended up placing first, second and third to represent the home country.

With the minimum age being 18, it is expected that plenty of younger online players will be the the mix. PokerStars has guaranteed €1 million for first place, which is sure to help draw in a massive field.

The six-day quest to crown a champion begins on Tuesday at 12:00 p.m. CET. Be sure to keep your browser locked on PokerNews for all the live coverage from EPT Berlin! We'll see you shortly.
