Fitoussi Learns a Lesson
Paredes Rebuilding
Flop: - Strassmann checked, Paredes bet 18,000, and Inizan tank-called. Strassmann asked for a count of David's stack before giving up his hand.
Turn: - Paredes bet 45,000, clearly committing himself to the pot with less than 50,000 behind. Inizan quickly mucked. He's still got a giant 585,000, and Paredes is up to 148,000 from a low of less than 60,000.

Thank F*** It's Freitag
"All in," said Lorenz Freitag.
"Call," said his opponent.
"F***," said Freitag.
Freitag: for top pair, top kicker
His opponent: for two pair
Turn:
River:
The pair of tens on the board counterfeited Freitag's opponent's two pair, and Freitag's king kicker played to give him the pot and double him up to 220,000. Freitag was overjoyed, at very high volume.
We do not know exactly what he was shouting in German, but we managed to pick out the phrase, "En der f***ing bubble scheisse call!" Charming.
Bubble Staaaaalllliiiinnnngggg
In a recent hand, a player from middle position raised to 9,000. It folded to To in the small blind, where he sat comfortably for four minutes contemplating his decision. Finally, he called the clock on himself and unsurprisingly, declined to put another chip into the pot. Six minutes into the hand, the big blind decided to look at his own cards. He peeled one, thought about it, and moved it to the side. Then he peaked at the other one, thought about it, and asked for a count of the bet (one T5,000 chip and four T1,000 chips - not rocket science). Oddly, he actually called, only to check the flop and then tank-fold to a bet. The hand took over 10 minutes and lasted long enough for people at three other tables to bust. Mission accomplished, we guess. There's now a floor person standing over their table to speed the action along a little.
Big Stacks Battle
The river completed the board with the and Yamin checked. Inizan fired 250,000 into the pot. Yamin folded in disgust, looking away as he angrily pushed his hand into the muck.
Inizan moved up to 900,000 while Yamin dropped back to 425,000.
