2010 EPT Copenhagen
Main Event
Day: 3
Gentile v. Sumpas
Showdown
Gentile:
Thorsson:
The appeared right in the door, and a board of was safe and sound for Gentile. He's doubled himself up into relative chip health, while Sumpas has been knocked back to 124,000.
Tengsions Rise as the Big Money Looms
Most recently he reduced Stig Rossen's stack to 400,000 after a blind-on-blind confrontation that turned massive.
The board read and Teng (small blind) bet out a roughly pot-sized 130,000. Rossen sat back in his chair and stared at the board, and looked as though he was really considering it - but in the end it didn't take him long to fold, and Teng has even more chips than before in a monstrous pyramid that's almost taller than he is.
Helppi Hanging In There
ElkY Elkiminated
The Wall Of Media was conspicuously absent, but this all happened very quickly and quietly.
ElkY:
Thorsson:
Board:
ElkY knocked over his chips as he left, and Thorsson is back up to 300,000 or so.
Teng Taking Over
Roberto Romanello and Teng both have very impressive, very hard-to-count chip fortresses under construction. Our best estimate has Teng at about 1,550,000 and well out in front.
Quite a Bet From Rossen
The dealer spread out . Rossen was first to speak, and he grabbed control in a big way. Rossen announced an all in for somewhere close to 350,000 in a massive overbet. Eastgate actually appeared to consider for a moment, but he eventually elected to lay it down, slipping down to about 575,000.
Pettersson Hanging by the Skin of His Teeth
Back over to Andrulis who folded face up, and they were heads up to showdown.
Pettersson:
Teng:
Board:
Chop.
"I would have called," Andrulis said, meaning if Teng hadn't called first.
"I know," said a slightly wistful Pettersson.
Toth Misses, Eliminated
Showdown
Toth:
Wissing:
Board: . That's not very useful at all for Toth and, unable to connect, the start-of-day chip leader has been eliminated with 40 players left.
Gaines Loses, Teng Takes the Lead
Teng has now snuck into the lead on just about 1.4 million.
